Sahraa was so intent on getting treats from Mary this morning at the park that she didn’t notice I had pulled my iPhone out of my pocket. She did, however, hear the shutter and came over to tell me what she thought about that.

Pictured are Sahraa, Shandy, Max, Zoe and Einstein, who is blind so can't see the treat. The legs belong to Mary and Roger.

One nice thing about this new iPhone is that it has facial recognition, so it unlocks immediately as soon as you look at it. My old one was a time consuming pain in the neck with thumb print recognition that didn't work half of the time.
