  1. Pockets I have 3 GSD SC entered at each show, cl 4, 5a and 11a 577, 584 & 590 523, 528 & 533 488, 489, 493 & 498........I doubt 489 is my number Either way junior dog to open bitch shows there are probably only 15 shep sc entered
  2. Two questions: 1. Which day does Santa come 2. With a forecast 40 deg on Sunday will the show still go ahead. I cant find anything on the DogsVic web site
  3. It takes an experienced dog handler to have a dog from pure working lines. Meet both parents and as many relatives as possible.
  4. Purchasing from lines that have been tested for everything that can be tested for and in particular hips and elbows will greatly reduce the chances of the puppy needing ongoing medical care or a shortened life.
  5. Jyetata and Rantino both started with my lines and are very different to Macklin. When looking for any breed, I would advise looking for a breeder who freely supplies test results of all hereditary diseases. One who will give you access to meet as many of their dogs as possible. A breeder who can look outside their kennels with an open mind and doesn't just breed with what is in their yard. Remember that a breeder that breeds for color or coat type specifically may be more forgiving of faults to continue their preference rather than use the best available dog to strive for the dog that most fits the standard.
  6. I have never known the vca to inspect any property. I don't believe they have a legal right to inspect. Who knows things may have changed in the past 10 years. Maybe they have more staff than we are led to beleive
  7. I cannot find anything in the ANKC or VCA rules regarding the minimum age for a stud dog. Does anyone know of anything?
  8. what should I be looking for in an ideal photo to blow up on canvas
  9. KJA, I have thought about having a photo put on canvas, is there anything special I should consider or be aware of before doing it?
  10. I had a lovely weekend. Travis getting BOB both shows the second day under a sheltie specialist which also gave him his title...........YAY!!!!! oh and aust bred in group on the sunday
  11. Ahh see I didn't read the schedule. Thank goodness for the slip in the envelope
  12. I will be there. I cant wait. They are all single groups arnt they And for those who havent looked properly at their numbers there is a change of venue...its not at the football ground
  13. those photos were actually taken with my 55-300mm lens, it was the only one I had with me when I saw the flowers...lol That would be fantastic, thank you.....pm'ing you now
  14. I know these werent taken with a macro but they are of flowers
  15. Well that will only make it more of a challenge and I am always up for a challenge. My other two lenses auto focus, is that because they have a focus motor? I love to see the really close up photos that you guys do but its not essential so I will do the best I can with what I have and maybe put a true macro lens on my christmas list for next year.....or my 50th. It was sold to me as a macro lens.
  16. The lens is a Nikon AF Nikkor 50mm 1:1.8D I have to admit most of that means nothing to me.
  17. I will be taking alot of shots on Sat so I will read up over the next couple of days...
  18. I got the Nikon 5100 the macro lens from memory is a 50mm AF
  19. question...... I got a macro lens but I seem to have to manually focus it, is that right or am I missing something?
  20. Cool. I am getting excited about taking shots specifically to blow up for my wall
  21. I am on leave shortly and I want to take some sepia photos of some of the old buildings in Melbourne Does anyone have any favourites I should try to snap
  22. I tossed between 5100 and 7000 but I felt the 5100 suited my level better. Although 6fps is pretty inpressive
  23. I will NOT play with the camera before I finish my pre agent inspection spring clean..I WILL NOT I WILL NOT OMG nope I wont I got it in a kit with VR lenses 18-55 F/3.5-5.6G VR and 55-300mm F/4.5-5.6G ED VR as stock lenses and then I splashed out for a 50mm f/1.8D lens as well I have a very good friend who has always drooled over my D50 and she has an assortment of P&S cameras so I am giving it to her to get her started. If she changes her mind and doesnt want it I will sell it. I am not that far into the photography to have extras laying around. I am happy with the D5100 and my little 3D P&S. cant wait to take some pictures....not even one shot yet and I have had it nearly 24 hours.
