Obedient dogs

Today my Boxer, Olly, joined a new obedience class. This class has all levels of competition obedience: some are working at the lower levels and some are more advanced. I asked my classmates if they would allow me to photograph their dogs during the long down.  When training for the down stay, some dogs have problems during the early stages of training, so it's always better to ask rather than disrupt what the handlers are trying to achieve.

This was my first venture into processing in Lightroom and shooting in RAW format.  Right off the bat, I lost my photos!  I still have no idea where they originally ended up - and can't find them.  And then processing one photo led to the entire batch being changed.  This is very frustrating!  Thankfully, I have a Lightroom workshop coming up in mid-June! 

In any case, here are a few of Olly's new friends.  I hope in short order, I can photograph these same dogs and see great improvement. ☺

Isn't it funny ... I didn't get Olly's photo!  But, then, he is camera shy. ☺
