Bearded Collie Club of America AKC Agility Trial
This past weekend the Bearded Collie Club of America held an AKC Agility Trial at American K9 Country in Amherst, NH. Both dogs and competitors were seen having fun even through the final runs on Sunday afternoon.
At this time, I’m still processing the images in preparation for posting them on the web. The first sets of proofs can be seen at the following link:
A bunch of updates have just been uploaded and I’m trying to get some more in tonight; compeltion of all proofs will be on Friday.
Upcoming Events
After playing catch-up and getting the EESSC AKC Agiltiy trial proofs from Granby, MA posted, it’s time to look forward to some busy times and fun events. This coming weekend, I will be back in Granby to capture the action at the Pioneer Valley Kennel Club AKC Agility trial. Weather forecasts look reasonable, so I expect some good photo opportunities.
The following weekend, I’ll photograph the Wachusett Kennel Club AKC trial in Devens, MA; this is the kennel club, to which my wife and I belong, so it’s always great fun.
This is followed by three days at the Golden Retriever Club of America Nationals to photograph the field trial at West Thompson Dam in Rhode Island. I’m hoping for some sunshine during those days, as the splashing of the dogs returning with the birds makes for spectacular images with some sun.
Then a weekend at Wrentham to capture the always exciting NADAC action!
Busy, but a lot of fun!
Southern New England Agility Klub CPE Trial in Chester, CT
This past weekend saw the return of outdoor trialling with stunning weather, albeit a little warmer than comfortable for both dogs and competitors, particularly on Saturday (don’t worry, we’ll be used to this weather soon enough again). SNEAK did a wonderful job in hosting their first CPE Agility Trial, which, based on the enthusiastic response of both exhibitors and club members, may be the start of a long string of CPE events.
Both judges, Doreen Lucius and Paul Stusalitas, made this event as enjoyable to photograph as it was for the exhibitors and their canine teammates to run. For those of you who can’t wait to get to the proofs, they can be found at the following link:
At the time of this writing, only Saturday’s proofs are up and Sunday’s proofs will be uploaded on Tuesday night.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

P.S. a very special thank you to Heidi and George Fellner for their hospitality!!
ABA February Proofs
The proofs from this past weekend’s American Bullmastiff Association AKC Agility trial held at American K-9 Country in Amherst, NH, are on-line. They can be found by following this link:
Please keep in mind that due to in-door lighting there will be color correction required for any photo before it goes to print; the lighting at American K-9 Country tends to produce a pinkish cast, which will be removed during this process, so that the end results will be a more natural looking image. Due to the very high film speed required for this in-door action, prints can be ordered in wallet, 4×6 and 5×7 sizes only; from my experience, glossy prints will look better for this venue, as opposed to well-lit outdoor action, which will look best in a matte finish.
As always, your satisfaction with the prints is guaranteed 100%.
ABA Agility Trial in Amherst
On February 9, I will be at the American Bullmastiff Association 1-day trial held at American K-9 Country in Amherst, NH. I look forward to seeing all of you there!
