Took Cooper for a walk at the right time of day to bring my camera. Here's a few of the results:

Very nice Jon, I especially like the last image. These all remind me of the summer thunder storms that we get here in the desert areas.

I hope you don't mind but I thought I'd try to get a 'painted' look from your second image. Great looking dogs by the way.

Thanks Gene. I'll play with these techniques and try to make them part of the toolbox.

The dogs are my buddies. Mines behind me with the rest of the pack.
