3.04 - "Solid" 

Wrinkly Face (puppy name changed to protect innocent Great Danes that've finally grown into their skin) hints at the majestic pose it'll finally strike a few months down the line—when the lighting is perfect, background ideal and the owner can't find their camera. Taken in the back of a parked pickup truck (don't try this moving) wearing a dark blue background, blocked camper shell windows, plexiglass below and two 580EX II strobes triggered by Pocket Wizards. Pretty much the same setup recommended by offshore, pay-for-view adult websites. Dog hair and collar desaturated because blue jumped its fence that day.

it seems everything its face is in focus but not the eye.. the background seems a little strange and hard for me, and would be nice to get rid of the black thing on the upper right. Still a cute photo!

Thank you so much for the constructive input. Awesome points, good eye and I'd argue them, but you're 100 percent correct. Again, thank you so much for taking the time to look and aid in improving what I do. Wow, maybe I was wrong in stopping posting for a while. Regardless, you've done a good deed and I sure do hope you have a glorious day.

Like the color of the floor and backdrop with the gray of the dog

Thank you. Tough to set up in the back of a pickup....hope you have a glorious weekend, and thank you again for the kind note.

Oh, another 2002 callback. selective color is as dead as dabbing.

Sorry to start your week bad with the image, but thank you for looking. This breed of Great Dane, or at least coloration, is pretty much black/white and tones between...except the eyes. I was just trying to get rid of the blue that was swept in during the photo shoot. Hope you have a glorious day.
