What I did last weekend.

[Mike Jackson]

I spent the weekend at an agility show. I was competing and also one of the official photographers.

Bertie and I placed in 3 of our runs with a 4th in the team trio, a 6th in the grade 1 medium agility and an 8th in the medium combined grades 1-4 jumping. I also took over 200 pictures which I've whittled down to just over 600. A great weekend but bloody knackering. I really wanted to just crash out when I got home the last two nights but I had to get the pictures processed.

Here are a couple of my shots from the weekend.

Awww - I was hoping for the bird/plane seaside photo ...


... go, on ... the others will love it!!

Great photos!! One day, if and when I can afford a decent camera, I might produce something half decent.

Do you mean this one?

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No it's Bertie.

I take it these shots are not taken with an "off the shelf" camera from Dixons?

 

[Mike Jackson]

Well it was off the shelf from Park cameras. Those shots were taken with a Canon EOS 1D MK IV fitted with an EF 70-200 f/2.8 L IS II lens. I'm a wee bit serious about my photography.

I have no idea what that means but it sounds impressive and expensive.

Very nice camera - enables high quality pics without having to know too much about photography!

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuckk!
