The childrens

[WifeKidsandDog]

Took this a few months ago but forgot about it! There's something about it I really like. I think I lit it with a 580 EX in a softbox.

Good exposure, and even better expression in the faces of both the "childrens"! Love it!

That's a beauty, Cheryl. Beautiful subject, beautiful lighting and comp. Exposure spot on, with nice touch on the shadows, too.

[MN Shutterbug]

Definitely a keeper.

Great picture! Everything in it is right! Very gook lookin Lil girl! I wish that I could have gotten a picture of Midnite (my lil black lab) that was that good before she went to the hunting land in the sky. Thanks for sharing! Take care and N Joy the Hunt././Jimbo

Great Shot!

Cheryl,

I can't see a picture but judging by everyones opinions it must be a good one.

I don't know why I can't see it.

Mike, the site is moving very slowly just now. Could simply be it's taking a long time to start loading the image.

Beautiful Portrait! Love the lighting.

That is a neat picture!!! Notice how Paris and your daughter kinda have the same look on their faces!??!

Very very neat.

[WifeKidsandDog]

Thanks for the nice comments.

BoilerGuy -- I think they do have the same look in the eyes -- Paris is thinking, "I better be getting a treat after this", and my daughter's calculating how much I have to pay her for modeling, lol.

just a beautiful image Cheryl!...the "eyes" have it!...it conveys a message..."I love my dog, my dog loves me",and I want you to know it!...wonderful image!....

I like the shots too Cheryl. Anytime you can get a pet to sit still long enough to get a good shot is a good shot. Looks fabulous.

I agree with Paul, lovely shot. I just shot a photo of my dog in Christmas garb and a package and it was the hardest shot I've done in months! They don't always do what you want Great work.

Post some of the shots, I'd love to see them.

This is another of my dog:

I think Dan's avatar reflects his most recent dog shoot. Great avatar, Dan. It's definitely not a DOG of a shot!

[finnbay]

That is a tremendous shot, Cheryl.

Not so bad yourself, Dan!

[Dbl]

Cheryl I do hope that shot is hanging in your house somewhere. I really like the seperation you have between the dog and the background, not easy with a dark colored dog. That is pet perfect!

Yes my avatar is some recent dog work.

[mmeyer]

Cheryl,

That is a really really nice shot. I like everything about it. Can I use that and tell people it's my dog since mine won't sit still for a second to get a picture.

Thanks for sharing

Dan, the photo looks great. Love the tragic labrador eyes.

Poor Paris has learned to just sit still and get it over with -- the treat will come at the end. He's been pretty much been tortured since I took up photography:

He's waiting for Santa

He's looking for leprechauns

He's a 4th of July dog

A couple of months ago, I found a pic of Paris (a neutered male) posing as a stud dog in Texas. I had fun calling the breeder and asking all about him :-)

I've also found a few of him on My Space -- he's a popular pet. LOL!

[Dbl]

Man o man I am just laughing!!! You are right about those tragic lab eyes! Mine are looking at me right now, why aren't we out walking or hunting!

That Christmas shot is fantastic, you do have the holidays covered well. I love 'em all, but them I'm a lab lover who can resist those shots. Great work!

[Steve Foss]

Beautiful images, Cheryl. I'm a sucker for dog shots!
