Thank you very much everyone for the lovely comments and faves, Maxy has been informed of his new found fame and seemed fairly nonplussed!

P.s He just has really big paws, no camera tricks there!

Yes he's a mongrel of some kind, half jack russell half something with really big paws! He was a rescue dog so we don't really know.


Acknowledging your note about the super paws

and rescued - excellent - he is obviously living a good life now and has a fancy cow collar to boot (which I also noticed during voting)

Love the dog. I like how you've got him lit well enough to stand out from the darker background (without losing too much detail in the fur). He looks so happy!

Max must be so much fun to have around! I like the background - although rather ominous, Max sort of steals the show.

8 - Lovely portrait and I like how he 'pops' out against the dreary day, but with the added elements of color in the flowers - my only real wish is that it had a nudge rotate up on the left to straighten a little (but could just be perspective). I like how the wide angled lens(?) has accentuated his paws.
