Back before digital cameras were invented and we only used film, we would have to wait days to get our photos back, only to find that they looked like these, all perwhacky.

Longhorn treats. You feed her. I’m fine where I am, thank you.
And we’d throw them away, right?
Now that I have a digital camera, I take these types of photos on purpose! Go figure.
Photos are from our visit to Cripple Creek Critters in Paige, Texas.
It's a long story ... 
But I like the ear pictures!
I do, too. But way back when, in film days, we would have considered them mistakes. Now, they are fun!
