Jeanie in March 2008


Some new pictures of Jeanie . . . taken a couple of days ago.


Not looking happy at all after a bath. She prefers to romp around the house trying to get everyone wet as well.

A marriage


Attended a family friends daughter's marriage over the last three days in Feb this year. Made the most of it by taking the opportunity of taking some unconventional pictures of a traditional Bengali wedding.

Hope you like them . . .

Jeanie in Winter

I have never seen a labrador before that is so sensitive to cold.

This is Jeanie in early February in Kolkata. Picture taken around 11 AM.
