Upland Hunting Event Coverage
Was there ever a more photogenic lifestyle? No.
A note about the resources in this area.
In the course of bringing you this web site and our other materials,
Upland Life's contributors and editors often attend events -
both larger, more formal events and more casual intimate ones - that
lend themselves to photography. Special dogs, fine shotguns, great clothing,
gear, terrain, and fascinating people... the visuals are an important
part of what draws us all to the lifestyle.
If we've produced images at a particular event and you've been pointed to
this site for a look, you've found the right spot. Please note that when you
click on an event name in the recent to the right or among the older events listed below,
you'll be brought to a page showing you
'thumbnail' images and links to larger, higher-resolution images. We care about the
quality of the images we show, so many of the larger versions are indeed
quite a bit larger, and may take quite a while for visitors with slower connections
and computers to see. In some cases, we also have much higher resolution
versions of these images (suitable for quality printing/enlargement), and you
should contact us about access
to that material. Unless otherwise noted, all images are copyrighted by
the respective photographers, and may not be reproduced elsewhere in any form without
written permission.

DC Weimaraner Club Hunt Test
 An Upland Life contributor was an official gun at this event, and thus didn't have much time to take action shots (well, only with a shotgun). In between senior and master braces, though, a few handsome dogs were kind enough to do some glamour poses.
