Reno Photos

[Howie and Maxx]

Hi Folks,

We're uploading the photos for day 2 right now and they should be available for viewing later today. Sorry we haven't had more online sooner. We had a little set-back....Maxx found where the DSL line entered the house from the outside and ripped it out of the wall and it needed to be fixed....Maxx will be "fixed" later.. :lol:

[MickeyD'sMom]

I thought Maxx was going to be this really mellow lab HA! Howie it's only the beginning! We are in the process of having our siding fixed as it was eaten! Won't even go into all the other destruction! Glad to see Maxx is a "normal" lab!!!! :lol:

[Howie and Maxx]

Yes...Maxx is turning out to be VERY normal......He's also discovered that he can also help Val with "redesigning" our backyard landscaping....Evidenlty he didn't like where the drip system was located and he's pulled it up but hasn't figured out where he wants to put it now. But in his defense, he's my 5th lab and by far the most mellow I've ever had...at least up to this point :?

'up to this point"!!!!!!!!!!!

OK, Finally Day 2 photos are posted now :D

Back to work on getting the others posted :wink:

[Val and Maxx]

I want to let everyone know that the pictures online are named the date and time that the shot was taken - so you can scroll thru and find your dog more easily. Here are the instructions on the gallery site.

The title to the image is the date and time it was taken. To find your dog, scroll to the time he/she was jumping. For example - 8-25-2006,1-32-59,PM.jpg Is the date (8-25), the hour (1), the min (32), the sec (59)

Please let Howie or me know if there are any photos that you would like further croping or enhancements and we will see what we can do.

Thanks,

Val

Howie:
Those our some great pictures!

[Val and Maxx]

Finally ALL the pictures are posted! Alot more work than we anticipated. Howie did not want to just throw them up there without enhancing the images so he was literly working non stop for days and days. I thought I didnt have a husband anymore :) Thankfully, he was also learning some new tricks that will help him get through the workflow more quickly in the future... But he is a perfectionist - so they have to be just right.

Please let us know if you want anything cropped or other type of enhancement.

Thanks for your patience. I especially love the pictures with the Junior handlers - check them out!! SO CUTE!!

Auburn next weekend!

Those are all really great pictures!

I noticed on the pictures from Saturday that I didn't see any of Bart and Gunner...they were there jumping in the later afternoon wave, maybe at 3pm? Are there any pictures from later in the day from that wave?

Thanks!

I had some problems with one of my lenses for my camera Saturday afternoon and a lot of the photos didn't turn out. :oops: I'm REALLY sorry about that, I know how important the pictures of your pets are. Will you be at Auburn? I'm on a mission to do a better job for you all at Auburn. Again, my sincere apologies for any missed photos.

Hi Howie:
I think Bart is going to sneak up for the Sunday wave!

[deedclemdogg]

That's okay Howie--life happens!

I'm sure Bart can be talked into going to more events! If not, I'm sure others like Sandra and Urs will do their best to twist his arm! :wink: :D

Great job on the photos! I love all the different angles. Do you usually take more pictures too of just what is going on around the event besides the jumping? I noticed a few like that--with people having the dogs on their laps, etc. Those are cool too! Getting that glimpse of the dogs when they're hanging out too! Just curious!

Good luck to all in Auburn!

Thank you for the compliments :D This has been all very new for me and I'm learning all the time. I appreciate all the suggestions that I've been getting, too, and will try to incorporate them the next time. I DO need to take more of all the things going on all around us--I noticed that, too as I was looking at the photos. Thanks for the tip.
