Haha...love the sense of fun (joy?) captured here, and the striking blacks and whites of the dog contrasts dramatically with the lush greens and purples. Not one of your iconic vistas, but I like it nearly as much! (Great timing/positioning on the dog's gait as well.)

Playing in the fire...weed, huh, Gary.  A fine action catch in lovely surroundings.

Great feeling to this image of Jake enjoying a romp.  Contrast and color look great, and you've kept detail in the blacks and whites. Nice one, Gary.
