A Photographers Challenge

I’m not sure if there’s a more challenging camera situation than trying to capture a black dog on white snow on a sunshine-y day. It’s a balance between getting detail on a black coat but not blowing out the definition in the snow. Lynn Fleming, a friend of Barrett’s owner, Brenda Juskow used Barrett (Ch. SureShot Privateer, RN) to play with the settings and captured some amazing action shots. Here are my three favourites.

Great job, Lynn!!

If I'm careful, I can balance on one foot!

No fair! That snowball caught me by surprise!

The eyes are the window to the world....

Thank you for sharing these beautiful pictures. It is indeed one of the hardest shots to get. I am still working on that! I followed your link and looked at almost all of them. What a great job they did. I also got a giggle at some of the silly faces. All, were enjoyed!

- I really struggle with it as well so I was very impressed with everything Lynn had caught. I guess I need to work on it more now that I’ve seen what can be done.

About SureShot blogs

For over thirty years, SureShot Gordon Setters has maintained focus on owning, breeding, and celebrating the very best of the breed. Conformation has been our prime interest during that time but we’ve always dabbled in a variety of dog sports. For the past few years, one such sport, agility, has pretty much become our main focus for fun (and the dogs are likely quite happy to spend more time on course than in a showring). Our regular website at www.sureshot.ca celebrates the dogs, past and present, as well as all their accomplishments. This blog shares the last minute news, the great photos, and just the fun we have with our dogs. Enjoy reading and don’t forget to visit the main website on occasion because that’s always changing too.
