Hmmmmm, no orange case here....
Actually, good angle - interesting interaction between the woman and the statue.
Thanks again.

Great Photo!

You caught a fine composition here, Kerrowdown. That statue of the lady looks so real it's frightening! Good thing the dog was calm, no motion blur to worry about. How long did he stare at the statue? Did he come over and growl at you? Were you scared? I would be.
Just wondering....

Love the pic.

"Black Dog Campaign comes to Scotland" - is it something new over there?

The annual Black Dog (motorcycle) Ride was last weekend. I didn't ride as I was interstate.

I didn't know the term was that old but knew it had been used for some years down here. I had Googled it before making my previous post but had come up with your linked pages.

Another great catch - just at the right moment. The name Black Dog sounds like what one might come across on an expensive whisky label.

We had Red Dog over here, I read in the Sunday Times this morning they have commissioned a statue of him to be erected at the Shenton Park Dog Shelter in Perth.

Wondered where you'd got too, no painting here, just part with your money to a great cause.
