Many thanks for your comments.

Below a conversion in b&w with DXO Film Pack 2. Image was taken with D800 and MR-Telyt-R 8/500.
Left side is our Arko, on the right is his mother. The heads could be a tak sharper but it is not so easy to find the focus with a mirror for such an image.

You were very wise to choose this breed Rolf, many congratulations. Arko will be a lovely, gentle, affectionate friend to all the family. We got our son a Golden Retriever too, on his 7th birthday, after we knew we couldn't have any more children, and we'll be forever thankful he came into our lives.

Rolf, you will have years of delight with this dog. I cried when my lab died at age 15!

That's a good boy !
These dogs are made for water and duck hunting.

It seems he was not alone.

No, we visited today the breeder and she kept one dog for herself - so Arko could play with his sister this afternoon.
