Thanks Jen, and stop putting yourself down You're an awesome photographer. I agree in regards to the 2nd. I fiddled with it for ages but didn't come up with anything.

Thanks very much all, and thanks for the feedback

Thanks so much all, really appreciate the comments :rofl:

I particularly like the 1st and 3rd.

I think someone's just bored.

Absolutely stunning photos Serenah and Katie

I thought the behaviour towards the Beagle bordered on predatory at times (although they clearly didn't mean business) and the behaviour towards the person with the stick was anything but friendly. As the owner of the pitbulls the question of why the dogs were shot is pretty obvious - they weren't in your yard and were harassing a dog in someone elses. All the indignation at the shooting doesn't change the fact that the dogs should never have been there. Blame the owner if you want to blame anyone. I thought the behaviour towards the Beagle was quite aggressive, though not as bad as it could have been. I didn't think the behaviour towards the humans was aggressive, though. Maybe dominant but it didn't feel to me like they would've attacked them. I think they could've been subdued and taken away quite easily - by the right person anyway. And I understand why he was shot, I'm just questioning why so many other viable options weren't used. I also understand that they shouldn't have been there, and I do blame the owner for that, but sometimes dogs DO get out and accidents happen. The dog didn't deserve to be shot 3 times. JMO.

That dog's yelps were so, so distressing. Feel like crying now. The comment that the dogs were trying to attack the people at one point was absolutely ridiculous. They were not being aggressive IMO, they were being playful and boisterous. And as someone else said, if they had wanted to kill the Beagle, they would have. Shooting him was completely and utterly over the top and if I were the owner of the two Pitbulls, I'd seriously be questioning why my dog had been shot. I'd also like to know why the owner was standing there videoing the whole thing rather than intervening. I find the whole thing sickening.

I never know what to say either...I always worried I might come off as uncaring or sarcastic. But I know if I were in the same situation, I'd appreciate absolutely any kind words. When I lost my heart dog, a hug went a long way, too.

Thanks Sam, thanks Cat There was a lot of bird life up there

Thanks a lot Libby, I'm glad you liked them

Just wanted to share some photos from a brief trip to Dungog-

http://www.redbubble.com/people/rodeorose/...wonderful-world Had to share this! Too cute. Also edited a couple more-

These are all so brilliant

I couldn't resist She was a gorgeous girl I've owned 6 Goldies, they're such a great breed.

(Mali, too cute for words)

Haha, Chimaera was gorgeous! Here are some of my shots...I'm really unimpressed with them, but it was my first time so I guess I'll improve! (cutest little monkey ever!)

Nah, I was just visiting from NSW

Yeah, I was with LotG I stayed pretty quiet most of the time, I'm very shy around new people

DWI are great. I like the 1.4 but it's probably not worth the extra $300 unless you plan on shooting in low light regularly.

Gorgeous shots It looks like this, too-
