Paquita

After Saturday's afternoon sessions were done my friend Aimee and I went to the vendor area in the Gettysburg Outlet Shops parking lot for some quick browsing. There we came across a friend of ours who had her galga, Cara, and her galgo-mix, Paquita. I had to get some pictures of them both.

Paquita has this extraordinarily colored right eye: the top half of her iris is brown, the bottom half is light blue. I had the 18-200mm on the camera from the last photo session and so I used it for a few shots, but I wanted to try using the 50mm f/1.8 wide open to see what I could get. So I switched lenses and using the 50mm I got these:

She wasn't really impressed with anything I was doing, so she gave me one of these:

    Paquita is just lovely! Although, I don't think there will ever be a girl as pretty as Cara. Paquita definitely has the eyes going for her, though! Wow! I was sad to hear that they lost Johnny recently.

    What a pretty girl Paquita is. The half blue eye certainly makes you look twice. Love the last photo:)
