Meeting new friends

This is one for Phil & Francis !! I was going to do a complete new subject today but I am tired & it's cold & windy out so I'm being lazy so here is another Blackpool one ! These three dogs all had adornments round their necks. The smallest one had a neckerchief tied round like a cowboy & the three whippets had beautiful net bows & ribbons, they must have been lady dogs. Actually all three whippets looked a good age as they were walking very sedately & quietly. They had a good look at each other but I don't think they were as impressed with each other as much as the owners were !! I did think about cropping this photo more but decided not to as I wanted to give a feel of the promenade walk.
Looks very sunny and colourful too! Meeting new friends would have been a good title for my photo today too........and Jenny's. Would be lovely to have more to join us next time!!!

Wonderful shot! Love seeing the activity taking place along the promenade. And the buildings make such a charming backdrop. Well done, Pat!

This looks like summer! It's got a nice quality of light to it.

thanks for the mention Pat, it's nice to know you thought of your two whippet followers :). All the dogs look well behaved and from a photography point of view the lighting is rather lovely.

They might be greyhounds as they look tad tall for whippets.

A very 'northern' scene :). Beautiful

Gorgeous light - wish we had a prom for walking Monty - I even like them in winter!! Not sure he'd be on for adornments though!

@phil_howcroft Oh really Phil, I never gave a thought that they could be greyhounds! Now you mention it they were quite tall & bigger than I would have expected!

Such pretty lighting, Pat. And I love the activity too. Interesting how we "fix up" our pets, isn't it??

Great angle and I love the colours in the background.

It does look as if the whippets are not at all interested in the smaller dog, perhaps it's a reflection of their owner who is maybe being more polite than friendly. Who knows? Always interesting to watch other people's body language.

I like a picture that tells a story, this one does that very well.
