Snow girl

The shutter went off before I was really ready to take this picture, and then she turned around, so no chance at another shot.

Sahraa insisted on staying out in the snow until I took this. I guess the photo experience was too upsetting to stay there any longer.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly unsharp.

So surprising this fondness for snow!

She may be a desert dog, but luckily she has a fur coat fit for the arctic. Cool photo.

Ha, she thinks she's a Sled Dog! Very cute catch. We still really haven't had any snow. V

Good grief! How long was she out there to get that much snow on her back?
Ika Zinka Eferl02-Feb-2019 08:25
What a cute...! V

Amazing she loves the snow so much. The snowy coat makes her look a bit like a sheep!

A good catch! It's so funny that she loves the snow.V

I'd say the shutter went off at the right time. An endearing shot of the "snow girl" Sahraa!
Ann Pettigrew02-Feb-2019 00:59
Have you ever figured out why Sahraa is so afraid of cameras? Cute photo of her!

Sahraa is camouflaged as a sheep of the snow, hehehe, it's very funny! V
Dave Berry01-Feb-2019 17:26
Such a pretty girl. I wonder how she'd react if you took her to the desert? V
Tom Munson01-Feb-2019 17:23
She looks worried to me. Nice shot.
bill friedlander01-Feb-2019 16:46
She doesn't seem to mind the snow at all. V
Dan Greenberg01-Feb-2019 16:31
Certainly not the desert weather she grew up with. Yes - often we get only one quick chance at these kind of images and then they no longer cooperate. A nice shot of her though. ~V~
