Ok, so i thought its about time i introduced you all to Katie (one of the three loves in my life). Katie is a 15 month old Red Border Collie, and my loyal companion when i am out with the camera (oh, and a born poser too!). This is a shot of her practicing her agility hurdles in the garden.

See, its not all weird creepy photographs with me...

Beautiful dog, and lovely composition. So, who are the other two loves of your life?

Hi Paul,
a great shot of Katie, showing an expression of all the determination in the world. For me, it is a shame about the cluttered BG and the colours tend to mix too closely with that of Katie's coat. It might be nice to seperate the BG a little more from Katie by using a blur tool.

I agree Phil. Unfortuntely the garden wasn't really big enough to work with. However, she is part of the display team/flyball team and will be at a couple of shows in the coming weeks, so hopefully i can get something a little better there

BTW: Anyone interested in seeing more pics of Katie can do so HERE, and you can read about Katie's puppy months HERE
