My husky Zeus. My daughter kept hiding then jumping out to get him to look up. Levels, curves, cloned out some dust spots, more curves, with contrast. Sized, saved for web.
Wow, my highest rated photo!!! A had some comments about his front paws, they weren't cropped off, they were never in the photo. The fact that Zeus stayed here long enough was harder than keeping a 2 year old still for a photo! But its cool. ALL comments and suggestions are always welcome.

I LOVE how he looks so proud and so picture perfect! You'd have no idea from this picture that getting him to pose was any problem whatsoever. Excellent portrait indeed!
what a proud dog. i love huskies and you have captured Zeus so well. we had one for about 12 years and she was the smartest dog - a bit ornery and a lot independent but she was the best.
I'm sure the eyes are natural, but they seem so strange. Instead of putting the light on the side with the lighter eye, I might have switched it to even the eyes up a bit so that they didn't stand out...unless, of course, that was your intention!
The colors of the background go so nicely with the dog's coat. I wish you hadn't chopped off his paws. I love the lighting, especially how his nose turned out.
