Default The friends you meet, when on a walk...
I took a walk this morning in the new fallen snow. I captured a great many images. The snow was quite wonderful, the temperature in the mid thirties (Fahrenheit). The best image I captured today, was of a new friend, Deuce. I of course thought of "Old Yeller".

Old Yeller (Deuce)

Enjoy your week!

He looks like he is saying to you....Please take me home, I will be your best friend.
I think some dogs just have eyes that speak all by themself, this is one of them.
Beautiful shot.

You know Lindy, I nearly posted this image in portraits. I guess that is the literal definition of Deuce's image. Thanks for the kind words!

He was having so much fun! I'm not sure he even wanted to go home with his master!
Thanks for the kind words!

A great photo full of texture and colours. A lovely look to his head, slightly tipped and interested looking.

I remember my dog giving me that look...
