Clicking Mad

really sorry I've not been able to get in here to comment on all your great photos :D sorry to here about Cowboy Annie, I hope you don't give any more thought to the person at the beach who obviously just doesn't understand. I agree with your plan of letting him enjoy the things he loves. ~~~~ Lotus 18/52 - sleeping (sorta) Chester 18/52 - mum finally finished knitting Chester a jumper in time for the cold weather also kinda obsessed with a new lightroom preset Lotus 19/52 - sun after the rain Chester 19/52 - same place/time as Lotus I tried to get to the park when the sun was shining, instead it was cloudy, grey and rained ... as soon as I walked in the front gate from the walk, the sun came out ... typical :D

17/52 - Lotus in the mist at the park, a self-imposed stay, who knows why?? she's a little weird sometimes :D and Chester 17/52 ;)

that is rather incredible! never seen anything quite like it

wow! great shots! all the dogs when not running (and some when they are) look a little crazy and I mean that in the nicest possible way, I do LOVE the enthusiasm! gillybob - flyball is the best fun dogsport to watch

love love love these! that 2nd shot of Sid with his reflection is my fav, but seriously they are all awesome what a great pack of littlies, even big-old Simon, looks like they all got on great I like how Simon got into the waves too

thanks again guys

bugger I meant to get to this earlier, got side-tracked as usual ... just went back 3 pages ... dogsportsobsessed - wow, 3 totally different looks for the past 3 weeks, classic! rallyvalley - I like the first shot of Toby better 'cause I like that I can see his face, he's a gorgeous boy ... hilarious look in Week 14 ... oh and the "interesting location" was an off-lead dog park I found driving between Melb and Syd, Holbrook actually cowboy sure has a great life, nice scene for a walk ... and love seeing him running through the water too! gila - great idea to capture his paw prints Lottie looks perfect against that fern, wonderfully tropical love Riley's expression - he's so cute, a great portrait ... and the "chilling by the fire" is awesome, great little bit of angle to set off his head tilt, you have a very clean deck too Tali and Kyla are just the cutest snuggle-pots! love the iphone shots ... fun! and week 14 ... Tali's before and after shots show the great transformation, she looks pretty cute all wet and bedraggled though! what a cute Bronson bunny ... don't you just love the way they make themselves right at home on the bed ;) Binx - oh they sure know how to relax ... cute whippetty butts the week before too what a funny upside-down expression on Asti - love the shape of her tongue ... looking very patient under the fence classic Moo-tail ... love it and such handsome boys ... great portraits of them both in Week 14, love the colours! lovely portrait of happy smiley Marlo - beautiful eyes ... cute little head-tilt in week 14 too that's a funny look 'eh with Chazer? Chester gets that sometimes too ... re: lost your retro mojo ( :D ) ... I've totally lost the plot with the story idea I had ... it's long since been abandoned, I do hope to pick up on it again when I get the energy for it ;) ... great smile and location the week before oh poor Maggie, hope she's feeling better now, that looks kinda nasty ... love her eyes in your Week 14 shot! kickss - Willow's a beauty, particularly like that first shot! Naomi - Archie is so cute! great shot and I like your editing ... cute little fella under the table (?) the week before, I like those lights and shadows Epic photo with Poppie - that sky and those trees are great! Piper - love the bath time shot! catherineb - he sure looks happy to have some new toys to play with kuma - she looks like she's pleading for you not to take away her toy in the 2nd shot whiskedaway - week 10 = such an adorable puppy expression! evolving - Bob looks deep in thought ~~~~~~~ 15/52 Lotus 15/52 Chester - I think he'd been taking lessons from a certain Frenchie :D 16/52 Lotus 16/52 Chester :D

love that last one kirislin

beautiful! love the bird shots particularly

wonderful borzois are a fav for me too, I sometimes get to see one being walked around here, so easily recognizable, magnificent ;)

great creativity and photos here ;) catch-up (thankfully not as far behind as I first thought) Lotus 12/52 Lotus 13/52 Lotus 14/52 Chester 12/52 Chester 13/52 Chester 14/52 ;) catherineb - disgusted by the "fwit" How's Bonno doing? tlc - they don't seem too concerned about Texas no longer being here, Jamie a little and now I see how old she really is, having her own old-age issues, being only 6mths younger than him ;)

I knew they would, I am expecting great things from you! :p haha yes, I think that's what I'm worried about Kibah: golden retriever can fly too: Alera:

soon ... very soon :p just uploading some to flickr now, as it happens, if I cropped heaps off, a lot more turned out better than I first thought will upload the lot to the photobucket account (same as last time?) soon too

yeh, I just love that they turn around at the end and run back every time, so cool! There was definitely 1 or 2 times yesterday if I hadn't've moved I woulda been trampled still working on my images, gotta say I'm rather disappointed so far, a few are okay, but nothing outstanding

thanks again kirislin for a lovely day out, nice weather for it again too :D ... gotta say these days have a kinda addictive nature to them: run, click, click, click, check, see all the cool shots you missed, oh I've gotta try again excellent shots evolving! it was nice to meet you again, I had fun running Alera, and I'll never be confused by who is who again I don't think, now that I know I've only just got my lot onto the computer, may be a few days before I finish going through them all

oh man, he is absolutely adorable! I love the black tri colour

looking forward to it

great photos everyone love that white backdrop for the typical Spencer pose ... he has a nice interesting pose too, I like it a bit of catch up from me Chester 9/52 Chester 10/52 Lotus 10/52 - the ant dance = very short shoot Lotus 11/52 Chester 11/52 I can't help but take photos of Chester running at me ... he's so cute and funny, here's a couple of outtakes from this week too

oh I'm really embarrassed about that ... I really didn't mean it like it came out, I just don't know any children, and it's not that I don't like them, it was the idea of hugging that I don't "do" ... sorry

thanks everyone!

I love those elephant shots you got! Brilliant "salvaging" the actual water spray shot I got, the water is in focus, orangutan isn't, partly why I put the triptych together oh yeh, the eyes on the surface is some sort of alligator/crocodile, this one is only small though, maybe 30cm in total length - I just had to stop by the reptile house before I left - I've never been to Melbourne Zoos' one before, and have wanted to, been sorta interesting in reptiles of late here's a quick video I did of the young fella swinging and playing on the ropes etc. - none of the photos were particularly outstanding but I thought they looked okay like this hope this "guest pass" works orangutan play

great pics kirislin love the zebra tails here's some of mine in no particular order don't think she liked me cheers for the zoo distraction therapy

oh gosh, sorry Horus, only just saw this RIP Lucky boy

I'm definitely still coming!

thanks everyone! so sad, I'm sure I haven't cried so much, just the little things set me going again ... the internet is good for distraction, and I started a book, I haven't read in quite a while, and telly has been ok, but as soon as I stop ... I bawl He had real soul that I miss most, just his presence, being here thanks for letting me blah blah here a little
