 New Chihuahua puppy wrapped up in a towel and very sleepy.

Existing overhead light in a kitchen at ISO 1600. I've really been amazed at what an SLR can get out of these lighting conditions.

Pre-challenge notes:
Hoping for a high 5 for this one.

Post challenge notes:
Oh, well. I fell a couple of notches shy of what I hoped for, but still a respectable score. I'm sure it was mostly the DOF that hurt me. Not a bad showing for a quick handheld snap at a high ISO and slow shutter speed.

cute, but the focus seems only on the eyes and forehead, would have liked it better if the entire face was focused
