Here's my handsome old man Nermal :) We went for a walk late this afternoon along the river. It was LOVELY :) It was sunny and warm and there was no wind. Nermal cant go too far these days not as fit and agile as he used to be. Just an ordinary slice of life. Actually I took heaps of flower photos today but decided not to bore you with those!

Oh, I LOVE Nermal! This is the kind of slice of life that makes it all worth it. He looks like such a devoted old friend!

AWW Nermal. What a fine fellow!!! I love doggy pictures so much. The line of the blurred trail to his right and into the horizon really adds to the shot.

Nermal appears to be enjoying the sunshine and warmth of the outdoors. I like your pathway leading to far away distances. Nermal seems to be saying 'come on, I can do it!'

LOL at Roz Nermal does the most terrible farts several times a day the type thst empty a room... even he has to leave the room! We keep small bottles of room perfume in every room to try and cover them. His other end is fine I still love his slobbery kisses :)
Nermal is from Garfield he is a cat! I remember reading a comic strip with Nermal in it and thinking thats a cool name and what ever pet we got next it would be called Nermal :)

Nice texture in that black fur. That's hard to do.

Now "Nermal" is not a name that I've heard anywhere before for anyone or anything. How did you come up with that one, I wonder? He sure does look like a good ole pal. I like how you composed this with Nermal to the left of the frame and the lines of the pathway leading into the distance on the right.

ahhhhh .. an old dog .. i'm happy that you love him and take him for those excellent walks ... we have an old dog called sasha, she's a cross bull terrier/rhodesian ridgeback/cattle dog cross .. or so the vet thought when she was 6 weeks old ... anyway .. she's now 14 and i'v gotta tell you that the odours that waft from both ends are so powerful that i feel like a bad person coz i dont like to get too near her .. the odours arent helped along by her constant grazing on a miriad of different types of animal droppings in the paddock ..
me, katee and sashy go for a walk on the firetrail nearly every day and we all enjoy those times a lot .. katee coz she's a dog .. sasha coz she is able to partake of even more and different types of revolting things .. & me, coz i'm actually able to be with sashy in the open air, which greatly reduces the intensity of her odours .. altho i can still smell her if she's within a metre of me even if there's a slight breeze .. the vet thought she'd be gone in a year, two years ago, so she's a tough old buggar .. we do love her .. i just wish i could cuddle up with her and give her hugs without feeling nauseous .. its a sad thing when a beloved pet declines .. :)

He's beautiful!! I really like the composition and warmth of this shot. Only thing I wish is that his eyes were looking at you.
