The dog makes me laugh. Little boy reminds me of my son, crashing on the sofa with the dog next to him.

Dogs are so accommodating. A cat would never accept this arrangement. Great shot.

Wow a new personal best. Thanks for the positive comments. Just to be clear, this was not staged and I had about 12 seconds to get off 7 shots before one of them moved. Flash bounced off ceiling assisting a nearby table lamp for lighting.

This is my favorite of all the bunch! It's so touching! You covered all the technical bases as well. Being a mom to a hyper little boy and a dog, I am quite certain it would have been impossible to stage this. Absolutely outstanding!
