Aren't black animals hard to take photos of? I certainly have that problem with my black cat. The dog's too dark here, unfortunately. What was the reason you took the picture from the back? I'll be curious to find out at the end of the week.
Personal preference, walk to me, not away. (I like faces, even dogs! :}) [my formally mustached, happy face] Dog appears indistinct, kind of a black mass in a general dog shape. The legs are very clear, so focus wasn't the issue. I try to refrain, but how did this look in color? Nice toe motion. Photo 8 Creativity 6 Road 7 total 7 (on the higher side of 7)
Yep, Yer walken 'On the Road'. Nice picture, good tonal range, just enough blur to show movement. I think maybe I would prefer a lower angle that shows more of the local area in the picture.
