Apache

I just love this photo of Apache…he’s such a handsome boy. When I was running my pet photography business, I was lucky enough to have a few clients in Melbourne, Australia who wanted photos of their show dogs. I made the trip down for the photo shoots and made a long weekend of it in my favourite Australian city.

Apache is quite the champion and was going to be mated soon after this photo shoot. Boy I wish I could have seen his puppies.

The yard in which this photo shoot took place had all these great colours and urban textures, so I took the opportunity to have a play around with some artistic effects on this final piece. 

Keeping watch

This is another in a series of photographs taken in Varanasi, India. I think after two weeks in India photographing dogs, I was really into the swing of it by the end. It also helped that my travel companions had clued onto what I was up to and would act as dog spotters. I’m not sure what it is about this photo, but it’s a bit of a fave of mine. Perhaps it’s because this dog is clearly a well loved pet. I guess I didn’t come across too many during my travels.

Monterey Canning Co

Phew! I’m finally home and slept last night in my own bed for the first time in nearly a month. To be honest with you, I’m just plain exhausted and feel like a need a holiday. I’ve been keeping a rather hectic pace for the last nine months since we moved to the USA, and I really do feel like a need some downtime from travelling (famous last words). I’ve calculated that in 9 months I’ve been to 14 American States and four Canadian provinces. I think that’s a little crazy and my body is starting to agree. We’ll see though. I’m meant to be travelling to another international meeting next month, but I’m not sure whether I’ll be going. If it doesn’t happen, I’m going to spend some quality time gazing at my navel for a few months.

I hope to be catching up on everyone’s blogs over the coming weeks. I’ve missed you all….so I’ll be dropping by soon. In the meantime, it’s time for a doggy photo from my visit to Monterey in June. The Aquarium is well worth the visit and the drive down to Monterey from San Francisco is really beautiful (provided you don’t get stuck in Wildfires like we did).

Daffodil Day

This photo was taken for the ARF calender last year and was used for September (being Spring Down Under). I thought I would post it today becuase it is Daffodil Day in Australia. I have lost two of my Aunts to Cancer and I think the sooner they find a cure to this awful disease, the better.

Beagle chew toy

I photographed this beagle for a client in Canberra about 18 months ago. I just love his pose.
