 Pet rabbit Randall kissing his Mom! This was quite a challenge - rabbits don't take instructions. I am pleased with this high key shot but do not expect a rabbit to appeal to the DPC audience.
Processing was some selective blurring and cloning on the background and lightening of the face (curves), otherwise, apart from the crop, it is pretty much as it came out of the camera.
I used two 580Ex speedlites with umbrellas fired by an ST-E2 transmitter on the camera, one on the subjects, the other on the background, a white velvet cloth.

Really enjoyed the bunny pet shot. Our house rabbit is very difficult to capture in a decent photo ... black lop ear, probably about the same size. The white on white really works well.

5 - Nice shot of the bunny, like to have seen the rabbit more dominant 'somehow' here. I understand the concept, but for this Challenge - like to have seen .. more bunny.

That rabbit is flippin' huge!!!!! What a sweetie. I like the diagonal line, but from my point of view, the human kind of ruins the pet portrait aspect of it for me.
