<p>Hello and a good Nikon Wednesday to all. Had the more or less annual pleasure of photographing another litter of fine seven week old German Shorthaired Pointers puppies a few days ago. Though we usually deliver the portraits as sitting-upright poses, this one generously offered up some variations, including this charming reclined scene. Had any particularly accommodating subjects? Share! </p><div></div>

<p>Fall color has come to southeastern Wisconsin. This is from an afternoon walk at Waubedonia Park in Fredonia, yesterday.</p><div></div>

<p>Ronald: I've tried to do that with butterflies and failed miserably. Good effort. As ever, nice shots everyone - I'll lower the standard with more holiday snaps.</p>

<p>Accommodating subjects? Not especially, although at least the helicopter tour let us on after we turned up a bit late. (For anyone cross-checking my itinerary, no photos of Vegas. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.) Here's the Grand Canyon West Rim helicopter tour, with more clouds than I'd have expected. This is the only one I'll share actually from the chopper.</p><div></div>

[Andrew Garrard]

<p>Here's a photo <em>of</em> the helicopter (not that you can see it much in 700 pixels). Think of it as an experiment in leading lines. This one's from the boat tour.</p><div></div>

[Andrew Garrard]

<p>Last look at the Colorado for the week, from the top of the walk to the boats. Sadly we ran out of time to go to Guano Point, which might have been a bit more photogenic (though the weather was clearer the last time I was there). More photogenic clouds required next time.</p><div></div>

<p>Bagheera is very accommodating. Daycare tires him out. Even a temptingly-bouncy ball or a chewable Nylabone can be ignored after a full day of puppy play.</p>

<p>@<a href="/photodb/user?user_id=2344388">Matt Laur</a> you've got this puppy photo thing down! What an adorable puppy and expression.</p>

<p>@<a href="/photodb/user?user_id=244644">Tom Stough</a> what a great photo! Two of nature's kewlest creatures!</p>
