My dog hates to have anybody touch her feet. I feel bad when I take her to have her nails trimmed and I always tip the groomer well for their trouble. They always tell me, 'you know, they make trimmers/grinders for this that you can do yourself'. I say 'yes, I know. I have one.' Ok, the photo: nice silhouette and I'll bet that puppy has quite the personality!
There's a lot of grain in this. I wonder if you tried anything to minimize it? A quick pass of an iron over the sheet in the background would have made this look even more professional.
* Some noise problems.
* I wish I could see one of their faces
* The big mass of black doesn't really do it for me. Seems like that part of the image is a silhouette, but the other part is "real". Kind of confusing.
