We keep her on the lead to give the wildlife a chance to reproduce. Because she is on the short lead, and tied to the tree in this instance, she has learned to save her energy and lie down. She was also waiting for her treat for being such a good dog.<BR/><BR/>KR, Calla had her skunk fun last year. I am hoping to avoid that this year but soon the grass will be tall enough to hide the skunks until the last minute and then...<BR/>(Reading is almost as much fun as a dog for a while.)<BR/><BR/>I, Glad you stopped by and that you liked what you saw. I presume you have a blog and I'll have a look to see what you are up to when I get a few minutes.<BR/><BR/>RA, At least 9 out of 10 moths keep on the move but it was cool in the early morning and this one gave me several chances for a photo.<BR/><BR/>Fast shutter speed gives less light a chance to get in so only the bright butgtercup showed up. If I had a slow shutter speed more light would get in and the buttercup would have been almost white while the background green would have been more colourful.<BR/><BR/>P. Calla is a great dog but not trained too well yet. She is the first dog that I have had since I was a child and the same goes for Églantine so we did go to dog school for a bit but not quite long enough. Amazing how much it costs to educate oneself correctly about dog ownership.Ontario Wandererhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13766128144351262255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13838675.post-1148603812951712592006-05-25T20:36:00.000-04:002006-05-25T20:36:00.000-04:00Nice dog!Nice dog!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13838675.post-1148568833962215032006-05-25T10:53:00.000-04:002006-05-25T10:53:00.000-04:00How lucky that the moths there wait for their phot...How lucky that the moths there wait for their photos to be taken. Ours flit about and fly off just as I have them in focus!<BR/><BR/>Calla is quite a cutie, and that buttercup is interesting. I don't know enough about photography to know why shutter speed would produce that affect.robin andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06386655587963143782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13838675.post-1148536018474608612006-05-25T01:46:00.000-04:002006-05-25T01:46:00.000-04:00Just found you via Clairesgarden.At least I think ...Just found you via Clairesgarden.<BR/><BR/>At least I think that is where I found you!

Cassie refuses to pause long enough for a single click and even turns her head away from the camera to make sure I don't take one.<BR/><BR/>The moth and the buttercup are both lovely. A good number of shots which I have taken would be called underexposed in the conventional scheme of things, but I was delighted by the results, and now and again they looked like paintings rather than photos. <BR/><BR/>All the Lady's Slippers in bloom now, and there are some wonderful photo opportunities out in the woods.kerrdelunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09779897207670867347noreply@blogger.com
