Beautiful! I love those two pups!
Robin :)
Phred, those are some great photos! I love all of them. All the photos were so clear, and the ones of them in the water, that camera really made the water so beautiful. Did you have to adjust the shutter speed to get the water to show up like that, and the pups jumping into the water was really great too.

The camera is a 3 mega-Pixel Canon A70.
When I'm shooting the Dawgs, I usually set it for Fast Shutter Mode -
which selects the Fastest Shutter SPEED possible to freeze motion,
and opens the Aperture (LOW f-stop number).
As with most Digi Cams - there IS a delay between ME starting to take
the pix and WHEN the camera gets done adjusting its settings :rolleyes:
and gets around to actually "taking" the photo.
I often "rush" the procedure an mush down on the shutter button
*before* the camera is really "ready" to shoot...
Result is often *blurred* focus or bad exposure = :mad:
Another camera option allows "Continuous Shooting" where the camera
snaps pix at the rate of 2 shots per second.
Works GREAT for grabbing "action" shots - IF you remember to let the
camera get itself "adjusted" for Focus and Aperture before
you start shooting the sequence...
Try to "rush" the camera - and you've just taken 20 bad shots
in the blink of an eye!
I've often tried asking the Dawgs to Hold That Pose while
the camera and I try to get everything adjusted and ready to fire...
but somehow that request never seems to get there in time.
But - we're learnin as we go along! ;)
Yes Phred, the best time to have them hold the pose is right when they jump into the water, and make them levitate while you take the picture!;) See what the pups say about that, I would really like to know what their reaction to that would be!
They are so sweet and you make them even sweeter!

Here's two *snapz* that got lost in the shuffle...
Taken December 28, 2003 -
After the First Freeze and just a few days affore the Big Thaw
that had us *swimmin* again...
Cinder ventures *out* on the krunchie water...
Smokey *wonders* why the water is 6 feet lower than normal...

Cinder takes another stab at "Walking on Waddur" -
and got several steps farther out -
before the big "CRACK* :eek: an *SPLASH* happened!

We got WUN more day of *swimmin* in - a week after these two shots
were taken.

I swear, Phred, the more pictures I see of Cinder, the more she reminds me of my Shiloh!!!
Great pictures! Keep them coming!
