This is our beautiful collie, Chloe Elizabeth Autumn Chase. She was helping me take pictures of the way the garages behind our house were illuminated by the warm Sunday afternoon sun. As I was laying flat on my back in the middle of the alley, shooting up towards a blue Indian Summer sky, I felt a wet dog nose touch my face. I turned the camera towards her, and on a whim snapped a few pictures of Chloe drinking in the delicious scents of that perfect autumn breeze.
