Running late!

I was hoping to be able to announce that the girls were in season by now, but still they keep us hanging on! In the meantime life goes on, as does the never ending rain. Our walks are just plain filthy at the moment :(

The beaches where I walk the dogs are a fair drive from us, so we normally only visit every 2/3 weeks, but we have increased the frequency of our visits recently in an attempt to get away from the mud, so I have another set of beach pics taken yesterday as the dogs all had a bath and haircut on Sunday and I couldn't bear the thought of getting them filthy less than 24hrs after all that effort :)

Oh I do like to be beside the seaside :)

The girls are still keeping us waiting, though it can't be much longer now, so here are a load more beach pics from our walk today :)

Playing with my camera

I have invested in a backdrop and some cheap studio lights, this is my 1st attempt using a black background, although there is plenty of room for improvement I'm pretty pleased with these.

Of course, at this time of year the poodles don't stay clean for long, these are a few from todays rather soggy walk.

The cats proved a much greater challenge to photograph with a backdrop than the dogs did, I managed to get just a couple of shots, the video at the end of the post shows why :)
