| I love the look in Kodyâs eyes. Your story of him is very heartwarming. We have a beagle mix, Cooper, who has been in many of my entries so I am familiar with Kodyâs character traits and can relate very well to him. Your composition expresses his personality so well! He is a lucky dog to have such a loving owner. |

Just to clarify why I chose a dark background for this challenge. I didn't want any distractions around the subject, this image was for me totally about Kody. I wanted to take a portrait of him long before this challenge which pushed me to do it now.
Kody is sitting on the staircase landing near a window he loves to lookout.
I used natural lighting from the window with a reflector for the left side of his face.
I hung a black fabric over the back of the banister behind him for a regal looking portrait.
BTW, he got a cookie before the shoot. :)
Thank you all for the lovely comments on this image and for my new found confidence in my images. |

| Awwww... Debbi! Thank you for rescuing this beautiful soul. She looks like she would be the best friend ever. My best friend has a dog rescue organization, so I hear stories like this every day. We try to take glamour photos to help each one find a family like yours. It just breaks my heart that people on this earth could be so cruel to something so innocent and undeserving! Your photo of Kody is amazing. I love how she kind of fades into the shadows. So beautiful! |

| He has that look, i.e. âAre you done yet?â Nicely photographed. I would like more room at the top, but thatâs just me. |

| What a handsome dog. I like the wistful look you have captured - I would guess he is gazing longingly at a treat held just above the photographer? A bit of a shame you have lost so much of the detail in the shadow areas - possibly deliberately designed to hide some clutter. |
