Caught up with ZuZu and Ginger resting for a spell in the heavy snow after they had been chasing each other around like crazy goons. They didn’t last much longer since little snowballs started gathering between their paws so we had to go inside and melt them off.

It’s a Golden Life!
Trog whirls around the sun with his wife Sweet Magnolia and their golden retrievers in pastoral northern Illinois. When he’s not dodging the tumbleweeds of magic golden fibers, Trog can be found exploring the countryside for nature’s gifts and moments, with an occasional capture here and there with his trusty ol’ Nikon.
Trog’s portfolio of images includes not only Golden Retrievers but also Nature, Wildlife, Landscapes and other genres from time to time. His images provide the content for the various brands of Trog’s World LLC: Scriptures in Pictures®, Trog’s Dogs® and Trogography.

But I’ve been with Nikon for over 20 years now, and it is my go-to for captured moments.
For post-processing, Adobe Bridge, Raw, Photoshop and Lightroom are used to produce the final images.
