Inspiration

In an effort to take inspiration from Peter's photos I went out with my camera today when poopy went for her walk.






Still along way to go... some of the advice Peter gave me seems to work though - particularly using a much higher ISO to enable me to increase the shutter speed. Most of the pics I took today were 'stiller'! I will keep trying!

She is still alive!

I know it has been a while... we went to see some friends this weekend and had to convince that Tilly did not die from her encounter with wasps! We were even told we had gone to the trouble of finding an identical springer to replace her. I can assure you we haven't.

One of our friends we went to see is a pro photographer (he did our wedding pics too) and he spent 5 minutes snapping away at Tilly with results that embarrass my efforts on the blog - never mind...





If only I could get that level of attention every time!



This is inspired by a famous photograph - not sure who though!


Tilly is getting on very well - she scored 90% in her end of beginner training class exam - we were very proud of as she was the youngest in the class. Looking at the photo above you will be surprised to know she lost most of her marks on lead work!
