The dog in the life of a day

Taking advantage of a rare sunny day in London to get some shots of Rocky as he approaches his 6th birthday.

1) This was actually shot a few weeks ago, but I like it. (18-200VR)

2) Having a good back rub! (Sigma 150 2.8)

3) On the scent. (Sigma 150 2.8)

4) I'm coming. (Sigma 150 2.8)

5) Can I just stay here? (Sigma 150 2.8)

6) It has been a long day for a middle aged dog with responsibilites. (Nikon 50mm 1.4)

Thanks, I think the Sigma is very good and I am not alone in that. It has a very good reputation as a macro lens and I have also taken some nice general shots with it. I have also used it with the Sigma 1.4 TC with no noticible loss of IQ.
