Myrrah's Adventures

Myrrah is a uniquely coated merle Scotch Collie (Rough Collie) that my husband and I welcomed into our family as a puppy on August 12th, 2012. This blog is basically a journal to help me keep track of Myrrah's progress and growth. *Edit: I will also be including photos of Kona, the newest addition to our clan. She's a rescue, and no one knows for sure the breeds she could be, but the guesses are: black lab/border collie/golden retriever...etc.

Here’s a recent pic of Myrrah, sitting in a patch of shade a couple days ago.

Myrrah is the most beautiful dog I've ever seen!! I'm gearing up to bring home my first rough collie puppy in the new year, though I'm likely going to spring for sable and white.

That is so exciting. I love the sable and white! So classic! You'll love it!

Hello! I have not posted in a long time, so here’s a photo of Myrrah sitting on a rock, keeping me company while I looked for a composition for sunset.

Myrrah is so beautiful!! Has she ever had puppies??? :3

Sorry it’s taken so long to reply, I haven’t been on tumblr for a while! We fixed Myrrah at 6 months, so she isn’t capable of having puppies.

Do you mind if I ask what kind of camera you use? The quality it has when you take idyllic photos of your pup is magnificent and shows her true beautiful features!

Thanks!I use both the Canon 5D Mark II, and the Canon 1dx, and sometimes just my iPhone 5. I think what makes a bigger difference though is the lens, the 70-200 f/2.8 IS II. I often shoot wide open at an aperture of f/2.8 which helps to create a creamy, bokeh filled background. I also keep my ISO setting low to prevent noise, but the 1dx does a pretty nice job handling noise in a low light situation. Check out the Exposure Triangle on Google to learn more about how to control your camera!

Hey all! Sorry I haven’t posted in a while. Summer is the busiest part of the year for me working photography-wise, so I’ve not really had any real time to spend photographing Myrrah while it’s light out. If you’d like to follow my photography that isn’t just about Myrrah, feel free to follow me here: jaclyntanemura -I’ve finally created a tumblr for myself, this morning in fact. I’ll post photos of Myrrah there as well, but it’s going to be more nature, landscapes and adventure photography (my main thing). In the meantime, I’ll have loads of time to photograph Myrrah with autumn colours (knock on wood) so I’m really hoping to have a swackload of posts coming your way in the next few months, as long as I don’t keep booking up. Thanks for following and all the support <3
