New Zealand Hunterway & daughter

[kelack]

I'm feeling brave enough to put these on. I took these Saturday and a lot of bribery went in to get them to stay still. I got them to sit and when I said stay, they laid down then looked away so when I called their names, they got up and came over :razz:

Got 2 shots in the end that I was happy with, althought they are a bit overexposed. Haven't cropped or recoloured, thought I would ask for advice on what to do first.

(and I worked out how to put a border on )

There are some pet photo specialists around the forum that will give you the best advice.
I'd say the exposure was pretty good. You need to over expose a bit with dark fur.

Prefer the first one for the pose in it. Don't think the backround of shingle is doing the picture any favours. Also the viewing angle is err ordinary. This is the standard looking down on the dog viewpoint. Getting down to the dogs level would give a more interesting shot I think.

Thanks for your comments Robert. I wasn't sure if the photos were a bit too bright or not. I'd had a little to drink by then (it was after the England match) and I think if I'd have sat down, I may not have got back up But I will take that on board and give it a go. Hadn't thought of that really

At least they're in focus though (ish!)

And what a great game it was!
More to come this Saturday, fingers crossed!
