    Just notes so I remember what stage we were at! Rio believes in early to bed, early to rise. Current wake up time is 5am, far too early. Bedtime between 7:30-8:30pm. She can do Sit, Paw, and Down on command. Luring left turns as she’s showing more aptitude for the right side at the moment…

    [singlepic id=94 w=320 h=240 float=center] View on Flickr No theme this week. I am happy with this picture. It’s in focus, the framing is good, the background is clean, the exposure is right, and Mol’s expression is perfect. It’s the first photo in the whole 52 Weeks series where I feel like I’ve done Mollie…

    Had so much fun with this. I was after Mollie’s 52 Weeks shot, and I’d seen someone else try this idea with their dogs. Some dogs got the idea quicker than others … [singlepic id=86 w=320 h=240 float=center] [singlepic id=92 w=320 h=240 float=center] … others were under the mistaken impression that I would just drop…

    [singlepic id=83 w=320 h=240 float=center] View on Flickr Theme was NOSES. I toyed with this idea all week, but only got around to trying it on Sunday evening. I wish I’d had some more hands on deck to assist, because it was really hard to focus the camera/take pictures, and position Mollie! She’s not abused,…

    [singlepic id=82 w=320 h=240 float=center] View on Flickr First time I’ve broken the 52 Weeks rules – bound to be Week 13, I suppose! I took this photo at the beginning of Week 14, but it was to replicate the circumstances of the week before. We’ve begun taking the dogs further afield now that it’s…

    [singlepic id=81 w=320 h=240 float=center] View on Flickr Theme was URBAN. This wall is a bit of a cheat, since it’s in the middle of the Yorkshire countryside. I have no idea why it’s there or what it could possibly have been used for, and nobody I’ve ever asked has been able to give me…

    [singlepic id=30 w=320 h=240 float=none] View on Flickr It’s a good job Mol is lovable, because she’s definitely not all that bright. Give her a tennis ball and a muddy field and she’s in heaven.

    [singlepic id=28 w=320 h=240 float=none] View on Flickr The theme at Ruffdogs52Weeks this week was Eyes. If the Pentax (K-x) has any faults, one is definitely the tendency to overexpose photos. You have no idea how many overexposed shots I got for this! I eventually figured out how to adjust the Exposure Bias, and got…

    [singlepic id=27 w=320 h=240 float=none] View on Flickr This was not the shot I really wanted, but there is something I really love about it. Mol’s got stumpy little legs!

    [singlepic id=21 w=320 h=240 float=none] View on Flickr The theme at Ruffdogs52Weeks this week was Black & White Outdoors. I took hundreds of shots but as soon as I saw this one on the screen I knew I’d got my shot. I was actually hoping to get a landscape pic, but no such luck! Mollie…
