Black and white from Omosako

Mike M requested some more photos, so I have put together a few from Omosako.

The first is of Carl, just after we arrived, checking out the Nisai.


This next shot shown a general view of the show greenhouse. To the left are nisai, right are sansai and larger. Furthest right out of shot the pond with all the big stuff!


A shot into the big pond.


In the tosai house, Mr Omosako selecting some tosai.


A better shot of Mike (I cut out the bad bits), as Omosako Senior and Junior look at the tosai selected by Carl.


A group shot of tosai. Black and white. Black and white............

Maurice.

Nice. Notice how the blue walls make the black stand out on the shiros?

Thanks, Maurice.

My purchase.
A real poor shot, but this lady would not stay still. Making her head look strange by driving into the bottom of the bowl.
67cm, staying another summer in Japan and will be joining the breeding team in the UK from 2005 on.

Very nice!

Maurice, I am sure that the skin quality is good(difficult to see from the picture) but the bone structure really stood out. Is this why you picked her?

Thank you for sharing.
