McKenzie, picture taken just a few minutes ago. With a single click of the shutter. She’s holding her qualifying ribbon from yesterday’s hunt test.
I love fall. The colors, the light … very conducive to taking pictures of shiny black retrievers.
And I love my pets. But I bet you knew that.






That is one awesome portrait!

Gina, first off congrats on qualifying! I know you must be incredibly proud of your girl.
Secondly, wow! That’s possibly the loveliest portrait of a Retriever I’ve ever seen. Book cover worthy, most definitely!

What a fabulous pic. Orange is clearly her color. :) Congrats!
And I’m with you on fall light and black dogs…it works.
