Thankyou! I really do love him. He sits and gazes at me for ages sometimes with those deep black eyes of his ...

That sort of behaviour must be forbidden and stopped How on earth is a human to remain in command against that??!!

Oh my goodness, he really is adorable! As for flash photos - I don't know. I know Charlie didn't like it so I stopped doing it, so a lot of my snaps are a bit 'warm' or blurry lol. Sometimes you get a nicer look without flash anyway. I tend to have a couple of lamps on nearby and that helps to give enough light.

He is absolutely adorable! Really cute! In the US all I have a choice of is a tank or a bin cage so it must be frustrating with the bar chewing. His cuteness makes up for it though

Must get some lamps as I dont like blinding him each time I take pics. Your pics of Charlie always look amazing.

I do like the tank style cages but felt that I could do more to make a barred one more interesting. Obviously not doing enough yet though. Plans are afoot.

His cuteness is pretty aweinspiring isnt it?!

Well just normal room lights I mean, but lamps are a bit less bright and where you want them lol. Actually the best lamp we have for taking photos is little boy's Skojig bedside kids lamp from Ikea! It has a funny little LED light bulb (you can buy packs of spares really cheap as well) and I've noticed it doesn't make the photos go orangey like other lamp light does. It's not cheap for a lamp though! I got ours from ebay as Ikea take so long to deliver.

Ah. Slight problem with normal room lights. They blew and every time I tried a new bulb. 'Poff' so I just have a bedside lamp now. Will try it with lamp on and flash off to protect those lovely black eyes of his x
