Thanks so much, Shirley. Yes, Pepper is older - probably 14 or so. We adopted her from a shelter as an adult dog in 1997. She lives with a canine companion, my daughter and her husband on the horse farm. I often go over there and take the dogs for a walk in the woods. I'm glad you like this shot! It was caught on the spur of the moment and I haven't done much to it in terms of adjustments, just minor tweaking.
I really like this one the best of your 3. I guess for me the trees and foilage are the best way to depict the earth element. Without them there would be no us. The dog is really sweet. I just watched Marley and Me and cried so hard I had to stop watching. It was just to hard on me to see the end of the movie. So, this is really special because the dog in your photo seems like an older dog, no reason why, just the way it is walking down the path I suppose.
