Quality of light, it just didn't work
Last night, I went outside to take something of the quality of light.
About the only way this would be Quality of Light would be to stretch the
meaning way out and somehow compare my dog with the light of my life, or something. He is wonderful, he is one of the loves of my life, and I guess it
was meant to be that I get a portrait of him. I am so discouraged. I have seen no light anywhere. I know I have not moved from here, but on TV, the news, it is all just pictures, and in the newspaper, etc............ and, well, here is not the quality of light, he is the quality of my life, he and my other two dogs.
Ginger, you torture yourself unnecessarily. I think that shot qualifies for quality of light. The dog has a wonderful, soft golden light on it. The light adds something to the shot. Dunno about anyone else, but for me, a good part of why that shot works is because of the quality of the light.

"jack" is a beautiful dog... Love the catch lights in his eyes, the open friendly mouth... almost a grin, and his overall "hey there, how are ya'?" expression.
Beautifully done!

Ginger's dogs, as far as I get anyway
(I like Jack, too. They are similar in the head, and I love the name Jack.)
But this is my family here
This is my favorite picture, ever, of me and my Yorkshire Terrier, Katie, it was a couple of years ago. I actually took it late at night. It is a small insignificant picture, but I love it.
Below this is a picture I love of my Skye, my heart dog, the male Corgi.
It is supposed to be a picture of my daughter's new floor and rug, but it sure looked good with the dogs on it.
No tail, legs in the flying squirrel position, I love it!
This is in May. We had four dogs. I rehomed one, Summer. She is very happy as an only dog. She is the Corgi on the right. I felt terrible about rehoming her, but I was not giving her the attention she craved. This is all of us, Merry Chapel, Katie, Skye and Summer, and me, all together in February.
It was quite handful, but it was fun in its own way, having that many housedogs, a small townhouse, with only two hands myself.........
That is it for tonight. Funny, I have not been taking as many pictures of my dogs lately. I did take one at the national park the other day, on a light finding expedition. Dogs can be on the grounds, but not inside the house. My husband rocked on the porch with the dogs who were on a leash. I turned around, and there was Skye at the door window.

Ginger I love your dog pictures, specially the last two.. they made me smile
My dog, Roxy...
It's hard to catch her with a "smile" or even a pleasant expression. She always looks so somber. She really smiles when I say "Let's go for a walk." and head up the hill. But, I havn't been able to climb the hill for a month.
I had already snuck through one fence to get close enough, but still had to shoot through another chain-link; thats why your getting that white blotch on the mid-right. Whattta shame. Anyone think its fixable? I'm gonna try a few right things now. Seems like its going to be some tough patchwork.
No time for the old in-out, love, I've just come to read the meter
I sat in an old beat up Land Rover for 3 hours in the rain, waiting for this leopard to get out of the tree, I only had a 55-200 lens at the time
Rectified that now with a 100-400 IS incase I go back to Sri Lanka
Beautiful, Stan! I admire your patience. Most of the time, when I'm on a trip, I am always in the wrong place at the wrong time. Or, time is so limited that nothing good happens while I'm there.
Thank you Snapple, they are appalling shots, it makes you realize just how good wildlife photographers really are, given the time they have to take the shot before it is gone.
This one I had to post back to Sri Lanka for the driver, the guide, the hotel manager etc

Yes, I see bits and pieces of him. But, it's really not his best side. Hehehehe
