A nosey picture of my pup

[swag72]

I always smile at the pictures I see of dogs looking up with their big noses and little bodies, clearly taken with a wide angle lens. So, with my new LX5, I decided to give this a bit of a go. Would welcome comments on the results!

Here's Poppy, all nose and ears!!

Thanks Jack. She's a cross between a German Sheperd and Spanish hunting dog (Podenco) we think!!

great - just watch she doesn't lick your lens!

She's lovely - so are Podenco's especially the rough coated ones

Thanks for the comments folks - I've not seen rough coated Podenco's Christine. I'm just glad that at least our Pup is having a great life, it's a tough one for those hunting dogs out here.

I'm no expert but I think it would take a light to bounce from off to one side into her eys and then to the camera; but I wouldn't worry, most people wouldn't be looking only weirdos

Let her off the lead for a real run about and chasing a ball for the first time today. She was excellent and didn't go far and came back when she was called. I love my pup

Cute dog, nice photo! She waiting for a biscuit? Has that "yes please" but also "hand it over fast or else" look in her eyes!
