Challenge: Pet Portrait (Advanced Editing IV*)
Camera: Canon EOS-300D Rebel
Location: My Back Garden In Warrington, Cheshire, UK
Date: Apr 2, 2005
Aperture: f8.0
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/50sec
Galleries: Portraiture, Animals
Date Uploaded: Apr 3, 2005

Slightly blurred out the grass in the far BG with a bit of Guassian blur as not taken with the desired aperture ( doggy wouldn't pose for very long and this was the better shot ) then I slighly dodged the nose to emphasize the nose and eyes whilst burning the bright parts of her coat as to show her colour up. This would have been far more natural but is was a very sunny day and were not used to it here in the uk :0)

Awww a yorkie! Contrast is good especially with the green grass. A few blown hotspots and the face is a little dark because of the direction of light. The thing that sticks out the most is what seems to be a bad blurring issue on the rear right leg. It really looks quite odd.

MINNIE!!! So cute! I too have a terrier and aren't they just the most fun! Mine is a silky and he's king of the hill around here! Bet your little one is as well! ;)

Nice shot, lovely grass, but the back lighting from the sug ends up almost bllowing out the hair on his head and darkens the face too much for me. A 6

A little bit of fill in flash would have lifted this shot 5
