Old Friends Putting On Some Miles

Roger and I go back 23 years.  One day, a year or so ago, our companies did a joint venture. 

 This got Roger and I talking again about dogs. Roger had been a Weimaraner guy.  One of the first people I had ever known who showed and field trialed sporting dogs.

Found out Roger had gotten Charlie, a great Vizsla, a couple years back to join Tess, a sweet little 4-year-old Weimaraner.

We have been two- or three-hour hill hikes together for a couple months now on weekend mornings.

 Here are some of the pictures from our adventures in the hills of the East Bay.

Taking a break on a nice Bay Area morning hike.  Fog in the background.

 Some times joined by his brilliant son, Grant.

Vizslas Seen through the Good Lens

I normally shoot with a little Nikon Coolpik Camera, but tonight I felt like taking my good camera.

 

 

 The Nikon D70s digital camera is about 6 years old and the Nikon 18-70mm lens is really a quality piece of equipment.

 These were taken on our short "Green Valley" hill walk tonight.   The Pacific breeze blew in from the west and it was cool and refreshing after a few days of dry winds out of the east. 

  These pictures were from the ridge overlooking the Diablo Valley.

 

On a normal walk there are many photo opportunities.

 

 

 

 

Nothing exciting or exotic but hopefully the "peaceful-easy feeling" translates to the computer screen.
