Sometimes the light comes through and hits the dog just perfectly. Unfortunately she usually moves as soon as she sees me try to get a picture. But this time I was lucky, I was able to twist round in my chair and get the shot! Not a perfect photograph, but still one that makes me happy.

I love trying to get photographs of my dog, she doesn’t make it easy by any stretch. If I am taking pictures of something else, she gives me space. But when we are playing outside and she becomes the subject, she either looks away, moves, or runs towards me. So just after I throw the ball and just before she reaches me are my moments of opportunity. Here are a few of our recent shots…

Sometimes the light just catches her little face perfectly and it’s a still moment to try and reach for the camera or phone before she moves. Photography inside the house makes her excited, I guess because I get excited. Outside so far she just sits next to me, but we haven’t got to the spring yet when macro season starts for me, so we shall see.

Sometimes she just looks up at the right moment, and this time I happened to be waiting…

You know when dogs do that thing that people refer to as ‘a funny five minutes’? Well, ours seems to love having these more often than not, and they are a delight to watch. Finally captured some of one on film!
She loved this tyre toy, until it went the way of all her other toys. When they say power chewer, they aren’t joking!

Our labrador puppy tired out from playing in the garden back in the summer.

Puppy’s first trip to a neolithic site just after we got her, a visit to Nympsfield Long Barrow in Gloucestershire. That little face!
