New Camera = Lots of pictures!

My little brother is going to Russia for two years and can't take his big Nikon camera with him. So what did he do? He let me have it while he is gone!! Now I just have to learn how to use it. Here are just a few of the pictures I have taken today. I have it on Auto-focus so some parts of these have weird focus on them.

The boys were going crazy wrestling after our walk this morning, so I took the opportunity to take a "few" pictures

They were both trying to get this one "broken" tennis ball


I LOVE this picture of Patriot! He just looks so happy


A shot of the toy bucket. Patriot was trying to find another toy because Hobbs had stolen the tennis ball

He got out a baseball instead


Which Hobbs promptly stole


The boys with their balls


This one is really cute up close


I like this one of Patriot as well






At this point the balls were forgotten and they were just chewing on eachother


An up-close shot of Hobbs' bald spot on his belly



Back to the tennis ball






Finally, I set them up for a couple good pictures

Hobbs is fuzzy in this one, but Patriot is completely in focus


Same story with this one


Another great one of Patriot. You can see where his ears are starting to grey......it is sad


And last of all, the Hobber boy. This one his face is out of focus, but his legs and body and in focus! I need to learn to use this camera!

Man, what a life! Where do I sign up? I got a magnet at my agility competition this weekend that says "I work hard so my lab can have a better life" Isn't that the truth! We were 2-4 this weekend...mom's fault both NQ's. We ended our problems with the double jump this weekend - no joke, we knocked it 11 runs in a row...including our first run of the weekend. Did I mention it was obstacle 19 of a 20 obstacle course...UGH! Love the photos...the boys are so cute. Hope you are feeling well!

Oh you are going to have fun with the new camera!

Those photos are great.

Tell your brother to make sure to try some Russian ice cream. I went to Russia way back when...it was still the Soviet Union, that's how long ago....and that is the part I remember the most! The wonderful ice cream I bought on the street!

By the time your brother gets back, that camera will probably be so passé! Technology seems to become obsolete so quickly. lol

Patriot looks like such an adorable goofball and Hobbs looks as handsome as always.

Have fun with your new camera! My dad is finding out there is a lot to learn with new fancy cameras!
