Traveler is done with house arrest and it was a gorgeous day out. High 70s and sunny so we celebrated with a bike ride. Did around 7 miles and while out I practiced in manual focus more.

Instead of his face being in focus his nose and teeth are....but it still made me laugh so it made the cut

Koolie, right? A friend of mine has one named Bug. Sadly haven't gotten to photograph her since 2010 though.

Nice looking dog.

I love those photos!

Quinn is finished week 1 of 3 of her house arrest, using the time to get my bike tyre fixrd so we can do some more riding when she isn't attracting boy dogs anymore.

Yep a Koolie! I know of one from my breeder that named their dog Bug, love that name. Any pictures you want to share of her?

Poor Quinn and poor you. Hope these next two weeks go by fast and you guys will have biking to look forward to!

Nice shots! I love the close up of his eye. The woman who originally pulled Gusto and litter out of the trailer they were living in just got a Coolie puppy, but I haven't had a chance to meet it yet.

I got it at a dog event from a SAR group. Euro-lead, with really nice leather for 10 dollars. I adore it!

Yes, one I think you've mentioned not liking ;). I will with hold judgment until I meet the dog (if I ever do). She sort of came into the dog by accident, so I think there is still some question as to whether it is staying. I'm not sure what the deal is.

:rofl1:

BUT I know a decent number of people who have their dogs and love them so I bet it will be a really fun dog!

Great pics! Love the Loon. :)

Zuma says she's super psyched to see her boyfriend this weekend and fully hopes that he shows her how to stand on things because she sucks at it.

I'm just sad it's gonna be your last trip through!! Lets hope no tornados, storms, hail or anything else hits you after you leave like it seems to every time.

Traveler and I can't wait to see the Zuma and you!

I reeeeeally like that picture with the ball in focus in the water.
Same here! I had one that the background was straight and everything seemed "better" but I just liked that tilted one that I posted more.

Awwww, there's my favorite loon. I have total Koolie envy *sigh*
Well, if it helps he's been a giant buttface today

It is amazing how it has worked out like that everytime.

Hmmmmm a trip to Minnesota sounds like it very well could be fun. And I would get to see Zuma which makes me happy

I've found that simple shift of perspective can make the difference between a "how cool!" and a "meh" photo.
