I can't seem to capture those kickass wide angle jumping shots that I see in the group sometimes... People must either get right underneath their leaping subject and manage to hold the camera and throw the ball/frisbee/Wubba/Cuz in the right direction at the right time, or they have a helper!

I don't normally like shooting on overcast days, I just can't correct the drab colour cast on grass and the pups, especially because they're already greyscale themselves. So it's a good excuse to convert to monochrome and bump up the contrast.

I'm a little scared about attempting to get underneath Lucy while she jumps... It's not her I worry about, it's the big blue 'Lout' that I don't want crashing down on me when he bounces around after Lucy.

If I pick up one of Lucy's toys ready to play, Leo comes bounding over from wherever he may be and dances around behind/over/under/in front of Lucy in anticipation of the upcoming game.

Then, in a burst of energy, he'll play with one of Lucy's toys, zooming around with his best crazy face on, dodging and weaving, throwing the toys in the air and catching them for a whole 2 minutes... Then it's sleepy time!

She tells him when she's had enough!
