Nothing beats a swim to cool off (pic heavy)

Its a bit "hot" over here again, so after work today we took the girls for a swim at the river foreshore.

I really wanted to play around with my new camera, but I still have no idea what I'm really doing, just happy if the pics turn out ok at present.

Got more shots of Kita than Izzy today












Izzy spends more time chasing the stick and inhaling the water than actually swimming














A few of them playing









Back to the drawing board with the camera, but they had a great time and it's the best exercise for Kita, she just loves swimming




Not so great for the stinky drive home with "wet dogs" but they are sleeping well at the moment.

There great pics, if your not good with the camera then the cameras being good to you

You've taken some lovely shots there already. I like the sticky out tongue one best. Keep at it you will the hang of the camera, just takes some pratice thats all.

Thanks Janey, I think it's because I have two good subjects, although Izzy is harder to catch on camera with the DSLR than my compact camera.

Thanks Kathy, you inspired me to stretch my imagination.

Funny thing is I have caught a few of Izzy licking her chops with my other camera as well.

Lovely pictures of the girls Lee.
