From Paula Black & White Sunday Challenge:
“It does not necessary mean gloomy, or grumpy like the critter in my photo; moody can be also interpreted as temperamental, pensive, introspective as I am at the change of the year , changeable, volatile.
If you don’t have an emotional child or a fretful pet, show me some wonderful moody skies or landscapes, or anything that fits the bill.
2015 was a difficult year for many of us. I wish for 2016 to change the global mood, to bring us more stability, good health, positive thinking and all round happiness.”
So I offer you Bishop, wearing his sad face — not easy for an inherently merry dog.
And our woods on a foggy afternoon in December. Two moods, both toned in copper and sepia.
May the rest of this year be better for all of us than the one recently past!

Bishop’ face is so perfect for moody- wonder why he was sad? I scrolled through my foggy photos too for moody- but never got around to posting- great minds think alike Marilyn!

That’s his “I need a cookie” face. He learned it from the other dogs. It works, almost every time.

And thank YOU for making some of the most interesting photographic challenges. I’ll be away for a few weeks, but back by the end of January and I’ll check in when I can since I wouldn’t go anywhere without my computer! Anyway, it snowed last night, so heading west and south seems a very good choice 🙂

Well, we survived GETTING here … so it’s gotta be downhill and easy for at least a couple of weeks. Today we are recovering from a very long ride, but tomorrow, we can do stuff.

Yes, indeed he does. He doesn’t get the “you are BIG” think. I love him to pieces, but not in my lap.

Thanks, Sweetie. He is a good boy and very sweet. He is, sadly, getting old and lame, but he’s still a wonderful boy. Happy New Year to you and yours. Let’s hope this is a great year 🙂
