Our border collie Nevis had his first competition this weekend at the Kingdom of Fife Fun Dog Agility Show.

It was a fairly gloomy winters day, and the dog show venue at Highfield near Collessie has pretty poor lighting – I was shooting at the maximum usable ISO setting. But that’s why I’ve invested a large sum of money in the equipment that I have – it can produce reliable results no matter what the conditions.

One of the problems of dog agility shows is there is a very high percentage of black and white collies which can look identical in small thumbnail photos – so I’ve learned it is essential to get a shot of the handler too, so that people can tell which dog is which on the website!
