I find it kind of amusing that animated GIFs are (and have been) so hot hot hot. I can see why; it’s easy to share moving images without having to have major video-downloading bandwith, or to have to worry about devices not having the proper software to play them.
I had to reteach myself to make them (thanks, Photoshop, for making it so damn easy).
I was photographing a work event yesterday and had my DSLR camera set to continuous still image shooting. During set up, and while the gym was momentarily empty, I asked my coworker to do a little dance. You go, tiny dancer! [direct link]
This is a GIF of a bit of video I shot a few years ago of Tamar and Rich’s beautiful model cat. I was tempted to include a caption at the very end saying “and THAT is how it’s done,” but that would make me a person who creates and posts a cat meme to the internet and I am not that person. PS I know I should make the GIF shorter but whatevs. [direct link]
Enough of this beginner’s crap. Let’s see some animated GIFs that rock my world.

Okay, and here’s another cat GIF. Okay. But what an excellent use of captions. Via Buzzfeed
That’s my kitty! The one with no caption. I love the caption one. And the endless subway.
