This photographer person is a keeper. The pictures he takes are amazing. Something that I strive to accomplish some day! You should enter one of your photos in the DoodleKisses Calendar contest that is coming up soon!
h my gosh Jaime...your Penny and your photography are amazing. I see you are a member of our Photography Group but I haven't seen any postings or discussions from you. You need to share your "secrets" with us. I am dying to pick your brain on camera lenses and settings you are are using for various photos. I must know...the one that is in the slideshow "On the James"...what your settings were, etc. And also, did you use a flash or special lighting. It is an amazing photo and you feel like you are standing right there in the photo. Is this your profession? Also, is Penny a Goldendoodle or Labradoodle? What a sweetheart!!!
Jaime, your pics are great. Have you joined the photography group. I copied one of your photos and played with it a little. Here is the result, it is done using a simple free program called Picasa. I increased the contrast and bumped up the saturation a little. I hope you don't mind, if you do tell me to butt out. :>) It's beautiful photo and a beautiful doodle.
Thanks for the info on HOPE! I didn't see any local teams listed on their website, but I'm glad that there are some in Caring Canines! I don't mind heading off to disaster sites. I spent about 3-4 weeks in New Orleans after the hurricane, some of them camping out in tents and working during the days. And Kaiya is fine sleeping outdoors. We go backpacking several times a year. Last trip, she ended up sleeping with me in a hammock.
We're having lots of fun on our visits. We visit VCU about once a month (every 2nd Sunday) and try to visit Sheltering Arms Mechanicsville on the Sunday visits. We also visit Retreat monthly. Kim just got registered with TDInc and sometimes does the Thursday visits at Sheltering Arms Mechanicsville. Kaiya is having a blast! We're in a tricks class and I'm slowly teaching her a few new tricks. But we also have agility classes twice a week.
We've had some great visits. Kaiya loves just lying on the bed and cuddling up with patients. So much so, that I have to physically pick her up off the bed when it's time to go. We were in Pallitive Care on Sunday and she let a family pet, snuggle and play with her for about 20 - 30 minutes. And she loved every minute of it!
Simon got a large pupcake that he shared with Connor and Skylar, his cute b-day hat and a stretchy monkey toy with a water bottle inside his body. He & Connor love the toy!!
Connor has been in Caring Canines since late Oct 09. We generally do visits to Morningside, a couple to The Virginian and we added in Providence r2r early spring. After Connor and I were rear ended in April, he has been very stressed about being in the car. It has gotten better, but not back to regular "Hey let's go"Connor. I am going to start him on some melatonin and see if that helps. :-) Then we can get back to our visits, which he and I both enjoy. :-)
