CKC Obedience Trial

I spent the day yesterday at the CKC Obedience Trial being held by the Ottawa Valley Golden Retriever Club. It was fun watching all the dogs at the trial. It made me want to get back into it with Alika. And, I finally was able to watch Eklypse's litter mate, Nova, perform.

K9 Costume Ball

In honour of Halloween, Bullies in Need held a K9 Costume Ball fundraiser. It was a blast!! The dogs looked so cute in their costumes. Some owners even dressed up to match!!

Fall colour

I don't often post images of my own dogs. But I just wanted to share Eklypse with you. First we stopped at this beautiful row of trees.

Then we found a really funky tree by the shore line.

And of course, she had fun playing with her friend Nigel!

Black and white conversions

I went down to the States last week to attend a photography seminar. I had a wonderful time learning new things, meeting new people and seeing "cyber friends" for the first time ever! The topics of the day were enviromental portraiture and Photoshop. In the Photoshop portion of the seminar, black and white conversions were one of the topics covered. I have been playing a little with black and white conversions and here are my results. These are from a wedding that I shot back in September.

BARK in the Park

Bark in the Park was a huge success despite the rain on Saturday. I had fun photographing all the dogs!

Gatineau Park

I had a wonderful time in Gatineau Park today. This was the view from the parking lot.

The leaves are absolutely beautiful!!

Eklypse enjoyed it too!
