A small black and white gallery of The Hound up at the bog, the very last one of this bog series – none of these photos have been aired before. It starts with sending the water flying and some sharp turns, but by the end a pause for breath is needed. He just loves it, but I guess it is in his hound’s genes.
It’s great to see a kindred soul paying tribute to your faithful companion. I lost mine recently and miss him terribly. Thanks very much for this spot of joy!

I know I’d miss him tons if he wasn’t here and we’ve only had him a year or so. Glad The Hound could briefly fill the gasp of your loss. Have a good weekend.MM π

I almost called the bend photo “Drifting”, or “losing the back end”, there is a sense of hanging on which I am glad you enjoyed. Not surprisingly, the camera was set on multiple shot and shutter speed priority. MM π

Great shots, as usual – then again, with such a model, you can’t fail, eh? ;0)
What do you use for your pictures (to insert slides, I mean)?

It’s on WordPress. click the insert media button as if choosing a photo, but then you click on “Create Gallery”, once having chosen the photos and OK’d you should get a choice of layouts, including screen show or something similar. Try it! Thanks for all the compliments, MM π

Now I feel dumb…. never noticed the Create Gallery! Thanks MM!

You have no reason to feel dumb – there are so many options and menus it isn’t always easy to find exactly what you want. You didn’t know, asked, got the answer. What’s wrong with that? Resourceful! MM π

Fantastic shots, Mick. Thank you for both color and mono versions – a good lesson on the advantages of both. For these shots, I like the black and white best as it seems to better show off the action.
A lucky doggie indeed – he sounds well loved :).
