Khaos, the tripod, as if that wasn't enough, suffers from allergies and has terrible itchy eyes. Evenings are often spent with him sitting as close to me as he can get with his head strategically positioned so my hand just happens to be in the right spot for scratching. Seems all I do lately is take care of dogs - mine, my daughter's, my mom's.
Natural light from the window to his right/picture left.
Update: July 2007 - Sad, so sad. Khaos , as he grew, developed seizures and other problems. He passed away from complications from one of those seizures. He was such a good dog, truly a best friend. He will be missed.

Really phenomenal clarity in this shot and I love the crop. Should have finished MUCH higher than it did. Have to assume people didn't get the "corner" connection, because it's a very good photo. Cute pooch.
Great detail and composition. I love the expressiveness in the face. So it's not exactly on-topic, it's still a great photo. Glad to see you back in the game!
Great detail and close up. I like the crop you chose. Some might find it too tight, but I'm a fan of "in your face" portraits that exclude some of the edges. The lighting on his nose works well.
