 This is my neighbors dog Diesel. He wasnt very cooperative during the shoot, refusing to look at me (he was much more interested in the dog treats my neighbor was carrying). Still, in 15 minutes, I took close to 130 shots, and this is my favourite of them. Hope you like too.

Edit: As I was entering the EXIF data I realized that my ISO was set at 1000. Why didnt I reset the ISO to 100 or 200 before going outside... I do that all the time. I wish cameras had a button that brings you back to a certain pre-set for stuff like ISO, file quality etc.

I love this dog...I want one just like him. Looks like a good fella to play with.

As for the ISO...I know exactly what you mean. I spent an entire day with ISO 1000 on a sunny day at the zoo.

RE: ISO - I can relate. That's why I love Canon 50D's auto-ISO.
GREAT shot though!
