Oscar! Come here! Imagine the scene. Out on a pier, I’m lying on the wooden beams over the low tide surf on the rocks below and I’m calling to my dog. Thankfully Oscar obliged and I made this photo as he walked towards me with his tongue half-hanging out of his mouth. There’s Jacinta in [...]

Oscar in the grass
Filed in Animals, Canon 20D, Cork, Dogs, Ireland, Nature, Photos, Sigma 10-20Oscar in the grass Oscar sitting patiently for us while we finished a bbq at my sister-in-law’s house! This required quite a bit of work because I had to clone out his lead, 3 garden chairs and the side of the bbq. Is it obvious where? Buy this as a print from $16.58
