Dusk. by happypat

Dusk.

Ongoing training with the lead saw Tui & I out after supper last night. I put her on the lead until we get to the end of the lane even though she walks along there on her own all the time, she doesn't take too kindly having to be held back ! I make her sit & then release her & she's off down the field like a bullet out of a gun !!! I must say though she is improving loads & doesn't pull me along as much !!
In fact she doesn't pull me at all on the way back ...too tired !!
This photo is the last house in the lane just as it was going dusk !!
Will be lighter tonight !!
Yay for you for sticking with it with Tui!! Practice makes perfect. And I love this shot...nice warm inviting lighting the path home.

Your pathway looks very inviting Pat

LOL - she's appreciating her freedom now she isn't confident that she's always going to have it! Do the neighbours think you're mad?! This house has a very pretty garden and it seems very sociable of them to have lights for you!

I have some nice solar sphere things in the garden but they don't work because Monty chewed the sensors off when he was a pup - shortly before he chewed through the wire to the tree lights and dug up and got half way through the phone/broadband cable for Nigel's office. He nearly got sent back that day!! @happypat @bpaquette

Oh Monty. Hope Tui never did any of that!!

@judithg @bpaquette Oh dear I'm so glad to say she didn't !!! Pups are hard work but you wouldn't be without him now !!! My solar lights never seem to shine well . horrible disappointing dull things !

This is such a pretty shot Pat - lovely daffodils and solar lights providing a warm, yellow splash of colour. Glad you enjoyed the walk. Dogs are fabulous for making sure we go for a walk - even when we are feeling blah!

Beautiful - you've captured dusk well. Are you lying down to take this - or is it a raised bed?!

Beautiful dusky lighting!

Dusk is a wonderful time for photos Pat, you should do them more often as the light makes for great images

@jmj No just walking by Jennifer, the wall is waist high bordering the garden & the road ends just here & goes into fields.

Those solar lights come in some fascinating designs. My Wife wants some for the yard, so I guess we must go shopping

Wonderful shot! Love the warm glow of the lights and the yellow of the daffodils in the twilight setting.

Find it funny your different seasons etc. Here we work by the sun in summer it is dark around 7.00pm so hubby works until then in the paddocks. But daylight is 4.30ish in midsummer. Our last meal for the day "Tea" is around 7.30 when he gets home from where ever he is working. Tryed summer time (daylight saving) but nobody wantes it now. Dairycows don't know the clock is put forward an hour do they.

@lornavale I noticed when I was in NZ the nights went dark quite suddenly around 8.10pm even though it was summer. In mid summer here it doesn't go dark sometimes until 10.30pm but still going light at 4.30am . As you can see very short nights. There is always some controversy about the hour changing but much grumbling especially in Scotland who say if the hour stays the same all year round it won't get light in the winter till 9amish. Can't satisfy all !! Many thanks by the way of commenting on all my photos recently !!
