My afternoon adventure on my first full day in the Adirondacks turned into an evening adventure because I took a nap in my hammock at camp for longer than I had expected. By the time I convinced myself to get out of camp It was getting to be early evening hours. I enjoy photographing waterfalls. I have a guidebook to waterfalls in the Adirondack region. In the past I have focused on… Read More
The Siberian Husky. I think Siberian Huskies are some of the happiest dogs. They just always look happy. In every single photo that I take. I have always loved Siberian Huskies. I always wanted to have one. I have now been fortunate enough to share my home with one for the last 14 years. But that does not dull my joy and excitement at seeing them at dog shows. I still love… Read More
The Shiba Inu. Shiba Inus are beautiful dogs. They are another breed of dog I have come to enjoy seeing at dog shows. However, the Shiba Inu does not seem to be one of the more popular dogs at dog shows. I love the looks of the Shiba Inu but it seems in watching them at dog shows that they can be a bit feisty. I love the way the shades of… Read More
My recent trip to the Adirondacks was a making plans and then adjusting on the fly. I like to have a sense of what I want to do on a trip or I tend to feel stuck. I’ll just spend the whole time looking at my guide books and maps trying to figure out what to do and never end up doing anything at all. To avoid getting stuck I like to… Read More
The Shetland Sheepdog. Shetland Sheepdogs are super athletic little dogs. I have watched Shetland Sheepdogs make quick work of many agility courses. Shetland Sheepdogs seem to be one of the breeds most frequently entered in agility competitions and when you see them perform you can understand why. When you watch a dog compete in agility sometimes everything happens so fast that you can’t really notice the details. That is one thing I… Read More
The Scottish Terrier. This image really accentuates the size, or lack there of, of the Scottish Terrier. The length of a Scottish Terrier’s body is about one strides length. In this photo you can see that the head of the Scottish Terrier barely rises as high as the handlers knee. So that gives us an idea of how tall the Scottish Terrier is. Photo details: Nikon D300S. Nikon 300mm f/4. Focal length… Read More
The Scottish Deerhound. The Scottish Deerhound has a cool look. They are similar in some ways to the Irish Wolfhound, but they are slimmer and sleeker. Scottish Deerhounds have a narrower profile than the Irish Wolfhound. The face and snout is narrower. The legs are thinner and more agile looking. I like the wire haired look. I can never decide if I would actually enjoy having a dog with that type of… Read More
Our camping trip this year was supposed to be pet free. But, Surprise, here’s a dog into your life. We lost our dog Brynn and amidst our grieving the perfect opportunity to add a dog that will hopefully grow up into the perfect outdoor adventure dog fell into our laps. And when it comes to dogs, so often, we take those opportunities that just show up out of nowhere and bring a… Read More
The Samoyed. This photo shows a little bit of everything that is part of a dog show. In the center is the main subject the Samoyed. On the left edge of the image you can see a little bit of the dog’s handler. In the background are two spectators and one of them is clapping for the dogs in the show ring. Photo details: Nikon D300S. Nikon 70-200mm f.2.8. Focal length 95mm…. Read More
The Saluki. Salukis have a cool elegant look to them. Not a particularly fancy looking breed of dog, but they have this simple elegance in the way they present themselves. When I see them I see the athlete in them. Because I am a runner I definitely see the runner in them. The dog that wants to be on the move. They look to my like they have the body of an… Read More
