WWGS and DWSC - Inter Club Challenge

WWGS (Wiltshire Working Gundog Society) and the DWSC (Dorset Working Spaniel Club) - Inter Club Challenge is an annual event between the two gundog clubs

In an ideal world I would have gone and taken a load of high action shots but for the most part, the ground didn’t allow it, especially the hunting part which took place in cover of course.

What I actually finished up with was some really nice images of dogs sitting with their owners or on their own waiting patiently (for the most part).

Fortunately it was a beautiful, dry evening but the setting sun didn’t make the job of photographing the dogs particularly easy but when I did get it right…………….

The action shots that did get were fairly simple in that they were retrieves of training dummies from open ground.

Fortunately one or two of the owners purchased images for download (which is always nice) as it helps pay for this website

The evening concluded with the WWGS winning this year but it really wasn’t about winning or losing, more about the interaction between the two county clubs.

To really finish the evening off, a BBQ was set up and the odd bottle of beer was consumed.

My next gundog event is again with the WWGS, but this time its the retrievers

It certainly made a change from doing pet dog photography, but that said the static portrait shots that I have of these working dogs, I’ actually quite pleased with.

All of the images from the evening are available for sale HERE
