Really happy with this shot here, had the camera on the tripod. Certainly the best picture I've taken so far with it
Sorry for your loss Beth.Jessie passed away this morning. She was 14.5years old, and had kidney disease which deteriorated over the weekend.

Thanks all for the kind comments about Jessie.
Her passing has hit me pretty hard, more than our previous dogs as we spent so much time together in the hills or just away in the campervan. If I may indulge in another photo of her so soon. This is how I shall remember her - high on a hill taking in the view.

We went to the local rescue centre today... And fell in love with a wee scrap of a border collie. She's been locked up in a crate for much of her life (1+ years) apparently.
We went to the local rescue centre today... And fell in love with a wee scrap of a border collie. She's been locked up in a crate for much of her life (1+ years) apparently. Everything is new and very exciting, untrained but is already sitting on command and will lay down occasionally when she has stopped running about. Not toilet trained, but curiously she will go on a towel, or puppy pad rather than the floor if you put something down. She's very affectionate, wants lots of fuss and tummy rubs. She met Jack briefly, he told her off and she backed off. They had a sniff of each other later and neither took much offence which is promising given she's in season. The rescue's vet is visiting her on Tuesday to check her over, and may be able to tell how far through the season she is. Which may change when she can come home with us/etc. I'll know more when I visit next week.
This is Jessie's brother Jack a few years ago.

Well done on helping and rehoming a Rescue Dog.
