Obviously a day in which a haystack could be hit. I really like the photograph. BTW, your bud does not appear to need the orange collar, but what do I know? Perhaps that is the only reason he/she sat for the pic;-)
A seriously great photograph. The stain through the wrist, if that's what it is, adds some thot to the hours afield; dogs good & less that may have been forcing the line and causing remarkable useage of the language lost to the wind and the dog, at the time, and the triumph of a brace at day's end honestly come by and hard won.
