If he's anything like my Cocker unless he thinks you're playing, (in which case it becomes a Tug of War), he just lets you take
anything out of his mouth, then looks hurt...

This is the critter that joined my household one week ago
and has caused quite a commotion:

8yr old  Cocker with his favorite 'Squeaky Toy', the burger.
I have NEVER seen an animal as hard to photograph!
He is jet black with no gloss and eyes that light up a
brighter yellow under flash than any cat I've ever seen.
This is with main and small fill flash, just a JPG
snapshot but the only one so far that shows the dog
and not just a black spot in space.  :-(

It's like taking a picture of a light-trap!
That burger is a very dirty brown.

Q+D burn on the eyes.

Don (Any suggestions on pics of "black things" welcome!)




Geez, I wish I could get detail in dark fur like that! <vbg>

Cute dog, but his (her?) eyes look a bit intense.  I don't think it
would be a good idea to try to take that plastic burger from him.  <g>

Nice shot - it seems you've captured a bit of the dog's personality.

cheers,
frank
