Not totally the image I had in mind (looks like the first one), but this one came out best.
Hoover, now 12 weeks, on his first real walk on grass on a frosty morning. His ears are standing up now (a difference with previous image).
I do like this lens quite a lot. It's an old one, no VR, but (in my perception) much sharper than the Nikon 18-105mm I had before.
This one's beautiful! I like his "expression". I also like the ear outline, the white rim along the dark inside of the ears. And the sharp grasses in front make a sort of fence, that works in this picture.
A little extra space on top wouldn't hurt, but I agree that the way he kind of matches the frosty grass is a pretty cool effect. I think this would look awesome as a calendar picture.
Hoover looks good almost like a toy especially in the frosty grass that looks almost artificial. That lens is an excellent one and the "D" version is very fast focusing. (We won't let out the secret of what a bargain it is.)
Daddy's Home! The crop you have makes me feel like Hoover is about to jump out of the frame, so alive & lively. Getting catchlights in the eyes when he's so close to the ground is going to be tricky. Can't wait to see the next one!
Such a cute puppy, I agree with the space above the ears, nice low angle as well. I really like the colouring in this shot, and what really catches my eye is the way Hoovers fur and the colour of the grass match and almost take on the same 'texture' (not sure if thats the right way to describe the effect but hopefully you can see what I'm refering to)
He is growing up in front of us (smiles) and what a little beauty. Yeah, I agree that a bit more room above the ears would be good but I love the crisp focus on the f/g - little blades of green grass fighting off the frost.
Cool shot - you must've been lying in the grass since the horizon is around his eye level. I like the way he is lit, but agree that a little more earroom would be beneficial, just like a catch light.
