I have never seen such an exquisite snowflake as this one, on Achilles’ ear. Unfortunately for you, my reader, he moved a fraction of a second before the shutter tripped.

Captured
Mid-lick.
Furscape
There are landscapes, seascapes, skyscapes, cityscapes. Here is a furscape. Achilles’ fur, close up.
It looks like . . .
. . . Achilles is pondering life, the universe, and everything. Actually he is juuuust beginning a head shake.
On the other hand, perhaps . . .
Tongue
Despite this blurry and out of focus image shot in low light, it is easy to see relaxed and at ease Achilles’ tongue simply hanging. I do think he either does not know or care whether his tongue is out. Whichever (or for another reason), it is most amusing and endearing.
Dozing
Achilles, dozing on the deck of a pet friendly cottage we recently visited. We took only him, leaving Fitzi and Lucy at home in the care of a trusted sitter. 
Waits
Achilles waits behind the gate while I work in the front yard.
While I’d like to have him out front with me – he is very unlikely to race off after some attraction – it’s better having him in the back yard. He is an old guy and I prefer having him there. He is safe from the stray or loose dog which might take advantage of his vulnerability while my back is turned or I’m otherwise unable to defend him.
Wait
Achilles and Fitzi wait out a late summer thundershower.
Most special
Our most special senior Achilles takes his ease, and continues to cut a very dignified profile.
Glows
Achilles’ Bentley (the white blaze on his forehead) glows brightly, sending calming and healing wishes to all in need.
