The pier, Diego and some random Parks

Here are some more random shots. First is the pier where we met Diego. Diego is a stray dog we managed to pick up at the pier. On our first day there, he came up from behind us. We assumed the guy walking close to the dog was his owner, so we gave him a little pat hello. Turns out, Diego was a stray. He followed us for a good 2 hours. He followed us across from the pier, across very busy streets, not always obeying the rules of the road, until finally we made our way back to the pier, had a seat on a bench, and he left our lives as quickly as he came into it. We named him Diego, because he was cute, and I like that name.

The other pictures are of random parks we came across on our various walks around the city. They are small parks that locals spend time in. One beautiful thing about BA is that it has a lot of parks and greenery.

De La Salle College

As I mentioned, I took some time and went out and took pictures at De La Salle College. For some reason I was really into the trees and snow that day. The sun was a little too high, and didn't give a lot of contrast on my subjects. I was out around 3 p.m. I thought that would have been late enough, but I was wrong.

I think my favourite picture of the shadow of trees in the snow. I had a good time playing around with Photoshop with this picture, and looking at the different options I have in post-production. I've decided that I should probably focus a little more time on taking pictures of things other than dogs (especially my own dogs). Cute as they are, and as much as I want to become an expert in dogs and pets, I need to make sure I'm able to think of making good shots from other subjects.
