A day that worked....


Really well....

Barkley couldn't wait to 
go outside....





He knew what that meant....
a tennis ball and bliss...



He is a focused subject...
so photographing him was not going to be
difficult.



He was more than willing to have his mom
brush his coat....
and what a coat it is....
just beautiful!


and he loves to RUN!



how could one resist focus like this?

he is intent on capturing the ball asap!



he even poses so that tennis ball would be thrown again...
I love that, too bad it doesn't work with people...



He is not a show off,
but knows how to put his best side toward the camera.



He is even willing to share the spotlight....
who says he is man's best friend?
I would argue that he is definitely a woman's best bud!



And
once tired....
he was willing to allow a bit of a 
semi-natural pose for that silly lady with the 
camera.



And finally....
the perfect shot!
I cannot tell you how excited I get
when I see images appear 
as I download my camera's images.
And
when I saw this one....
well,
I just knew I had a little help with 
this one.....isn't it perfect?
