Just wanted to share - although nowhere near Harry's pin up status, Charlie is obviously developing a serious diva ambition... charlie monroe by JulieTandCharlie, on Flickr (I think we should have a "random picture of dog" section - never know where to put things like this. Don't suppose it matters.)
Re: Charlie monroe Course it doesn't matter!he is gorgeous ,the sun just bounces off the shine on his coat x
Re: Charlie monroe He is the most beautiful pup... My Poppy is tiny, a real girl, and a working strain lab through and through. I love her to bits - but I have to admit I get all gooey when I see big strong male labbies like your boy...
Re: Charlie monroe Thanks! I think he is just lovely. He is just a week off 5 months now. I love the working labs - they look so fit and fine and nimble. But I am enjoying Charlie's Chocolate loveliness - and his coat is SO shiny. He just gets rinsed, I'm so scared to disturb what is obviously a naturally balanced oiled coat with soap (he still smells like a puppy though, so my no soap policy might change rapidly with time...). I love photos, I have a big leather album that I've been keeping for about 20 years now, and it's a joy to look back at all our adventures. Charlie is one of our biggest!
Re: Charlie monroe Charlie is gorgeous! And the choccies are so much easier to photograph unfortunately compared to the blacks : Jealous of your lack of needing soap too ;D Jac
Re: Charlie monroe What a beautiful boy. I have Otis, a three month old choc lab, he is lovely too. Maggie
Re: Charlie monroe Julie, you should seriously do professional dog photography. Your photos are just divine. And so is your puppy
Re: Charlie monroe Ah, thanks. The photos are easy though - good quality digital wildlife camera, with rapid shooting and a very, very, fast auto focus, decent PC processing power to transfer and process them. So on our walk this morning, we took about 400 photos, then I flick through them over breakfast. I always get one or two good ones. Darn it, there you all were thinking I had some talent! Secret is out, it's just technology.
Re: Charlie monroe No, it's talent!!!! ;D We have a great camera. I can take 10 000 photos with it and they're all rubbish ;D
Re: Charlie monroe Julie you have got to think about professional dog photography as a career! That's a stunning picture of Charlie. I agree, definitely talent. Of course having such a stunner of a subject helps. He's just beautiful isn't he.
