Jake of the clans Cullens and McPete, in his County Kerry tartan kilt, crouches to examine the hearth, seeing scorpion and all nature of insect there. And yet, he sits nobly, confident and stalwart, KNOWING the threat worse than the Scorpion's sting would be ME if he moves even one inch while I am taking this shot! And how beguilingly he ALMOST shows the classic Scottish kilt undergarb. Such a tease, such a well placed knee.

This pic is part of a story about my husband unhappily posing in the heat in his kilt. Thank you to the incomparable Scot, Gary Fudge, whose photos of self in kilt was my final persuasion in getting my pose from Jake! That photo is here: http://www.jpgmag.com/photos/685828
