Bea About It: 52 Weeks for Dogs

The purpose of this blog is to document 52 weeks of Bea, through the 52 Weeks for Dogs group on Flickr.

What is 52 Weeks for Dogs?

Flickr's Original 52 Weeks for Dogs group is home to flickr's die-hard dog and photo addicts ... which showcases 1-year photo projects and a wealth of information about dogs and photography.

"The group is after more than quick snap shots of your dogs. The idea is to push the boundaries, examine new sides of your best friend, see things in them that perhaps you have not seen before, or try new shooting methods. The idea is to be fun and creative...every week."

This is my second year doing this project. Last year I documented 52 Weeks of Ranger

This year it is Bea! A fun year ahead, full of new puppy moments, the first time on sheep, growing, changing and morphing into an adult. It should be fun!

It was fun trying to get this shot. Bea was watching the dogs play through the fence. It was one of those lucky moments ... the frost was stunning, she was in the right place and the lighting was perfect. The shots leading up to this one were cute too.

I had a hard time choosing between the one above and this one...I felt her expression in my selection was a bit more intense, this shot she looks worried.
