"Familiarity breeds contempt" they say. Well, I have never felt contempt for Annie, my Border Collie but sometimes I do forget how much joy she brings to my life.
So I submit this little snap of Annie doing what she likes to do best, i.e. bringing the ball back. Sometimes I feel she must be thinking "If it wasn't for me you would never be able to find this ball when you needed it!"
A little reminder to myself of the wonderful things in ordinary everyday life that you can miss out on if you're not paying attention. 'Mindfulness' is what it's called I believe.
kind regards,
Robin

Unusual, very effective composition - I like the way Annie is pulling against the railings. Very well seen!
Thanks for the Mod, by the way - but Bill knows me far too well to try that line!

VERY well said, Robin...and I love the whole write-up 
OMG...I just realised that I haven't replied to your e-mail! I'd popped in briefly to Hotmail to check on a friend's arrival details and read your e-mail and meant to reply but got sidetracked and...BAH...ok...gonna quickly hop into Hotmail after this and send you a quick reply.
As for this image, this could not have been shot and croppped better Awww...look at Annie!

Beautiful Border Collie - they are the best breed by a mile - there again I am biased!! Likewise our dog just lives for her ball.
