This is prob. going to be disregarded b/c of the green glare in the eyes of the dog.

but on the photo i did hue, saturation, curves, colour, and brightness&contrast adjustment.

the subject is probably what you want to know it is a mix of Chihuahua&Dachshund and maybe something elce.(since it is a stray we don't know)

it has lived happly with us for about 7years and is my sisters dog.Her name is Violet (the dog that is)
But she looks alot like Yoda or some other Si.Fi. creature so her nickname around the house is SiFi. Vi.(hence the glowing eyes)

thats all enjoy the Bizarreness of Nature.

Good focus, but a red-eye reduction flash and a darker background would have greatly improved this shot for me. If you don't have studio lights or a bounce flash, you might want to consider shooting these types of photos outside, with natural light, or further away from the wall to reduce the harsh shadows. The ears on this little guy are great. I bet that even a tight cropped shot of just the head would be interesting too. 5

Funny little dog, quite likely with bizarre habits, but not really a picture of "bizarre nature". Shadow and blue eye glare make for distracting elements.

A little over exposed on the white blanket under the paws. Being further away from the dog and using a long zoom lens will help with the "deer eyes"

bad red-eye (actually, blue here?), flash too strong, and shooting a photo of your pet is rather un-interesting and certainly not "bizarre"

Love the blue reflections/lights in his/her eyes! Love this photo, only nitpick is that you needed to crop the top so the shadows in each corner wouldn't show.

it looks likes the dog is watching TV, like the X files pretty creepy. It make me wonder what the dog might be thinking of
