Cold but Beautiful

Today has been rather cold but we have had some wonderful blue skies and sunshine - far preferable to me than grey, wet and miserable!

I thought this was a beautiful sight ...

Oldies Club Winter Walkies

Yesterday I took part in the Oldies Club Winter Walkies. It was a wonderfully sunny day and we had lots of fun. Lovely to see so many dogs (and people!) together, enjoying themselves :)

I took lots of photos, which can be seen here. Many of the dogs featured were adopted from rescues, including a number adopted from the Oldies Club dog rescue charity. I've posted just a few of my photographs below - you'll have to visit the link above to see the rest :-)

Oldies Club has recently launched a fundraising appeal for Happy and Shamrock, two dogs who were rescued from appalling conditions in Ireland and have come into Oldies Club care. The charity is currently paying for them to be kenneled and unfortunately both dogs became very ill and have had to spend time at the vets. If you would like to make a donation towards their care, please CLICK HERE for more information.

Wonderful Web

Today, while out walking with the dogs, I took these photos. I don't think I've seen anything like it before. It was rather cool :-) I half expected to see a spaceship at the end of it!

Irish Retriever Rescue UK - Reunion 2009

Yesterday I had a card stall at this show. I didn't sell many cards but it was still a great day out with great weather, nice people and lots of lovely dogs of all sorts of breeds and crosses.

I have posted a gallery of photos from the event here.

Dog Charity - photographic event

A few weeks ago I was fortunate enough to be the official photographer for a training day for a Labrador rescue: Labrador Rescue South East & Central, the wonderful rescue I adopted my youngest dog from.

It was a fantastic afternoon, a great experience watching the dogs working with their owners, the weather was very kind (thankfully!) and while it was exhausting, it was a very positive experience for me.

Quite a few of the people that attended the training day ordered prints of the photographs I took and those have been posted out. The photos can be viewed online here.

This is one of my absolute favourite photographs of the day - wonderful dog and very nice owner and I just love the photograph, which I feel really captures the bond and love between them :)

A summer evening walk

It was a lovely day here yesterday so we went for a walk in the evening and the light was beautiful. I really love this photo - simple but lovely, I think.

New website!

I have been busy sorting out my new photography website as my last one was due for renewal and I decided to look around to see what else was available. I am really pleased with how the new one is looking and it's much easier to manage.

Take a look and let me know what you think? *NEW WEBSITE*

I have more photos to add to it and will obviously add more on an ongoing basis too :)
