Thank you John, Thomas and Dogman!

It was time for us to give our dog another "spa day" at the groomers.  I love seeing the dogs.  There's always a great looking pup being given regal treatment.  Keydra is the stylist/groomer here.  She also does our dog Christie.  She's excellent and has a great rapport with the dogs.  Photo done with a Fuji X-Pro2 and Voigtlander 21mm ƒ/4 Color Skopar lens.

Nice scene and image. My wife grooms Yaiza our labradoodle herself every 4/5 weeks.

Who needs more than one bit color depth? really?

Do you remember Kodalith film?

Even for high-contrast b/w images we need a few bits to make greys and avoid the image being just a line drawing.

Thanks, Luc.

I used to do our previous Wheaten, Kiri, and I've done Christie in her (and my) younger days.  However, my spinal condition doesn't allow me to stand long enough anymore to do a proper job.  Keydra is the best groomer we've had but the shop charges a lot for the service.  I guess our pets are worth it to us.

Kiri was a Wheaten who had curly hair and it was hard to comb, brush and keep trimmed.  Christie has fine, straight hair and a better disposition for grooming.  She's an obstinate little dog but she is miraculously easy going on the grooming table.
