music, dogs, pints, more dogs ... photos from the Hartley Arms festival

postcards from the sea - no. 5

During our time in Brighton, Mandy and I stayed at the home of a lovely family who were so welcoming and friendly. They also had a gorgeous dog called Stanley and Mandy couldn't resist the temptation to ask if she could take some pictures.  

I stood quietly in the background, taking some myself and watching a master at work.  Mandy has an uncanny ability to find an immediate connection with dogs and the pictures shown here are all as the result of her work!

I highly recommend Mandy's blog, '100 Strangers and their dogs' not just for the amazing photographs but also for the stories that accompany them.

Thank you Brighton for a fantastic time and thank you Catherine and Elaine for opening your very special home to us.

 

 

on the beach

Roscoe's first walk on the beach at Wells-next-the-Sea in Norfolk. He enjoyed it, we enjoyed it and I got some interesting black and white photos.
