The last time I photographed Lexie was the November Free Study in 2009. The time before that was the Pet Portrait III 2008. So I figured I would try it again to see if I improved. 2008 I did pretty good just was too soft. 2009 I overprocessed and didn't do so hot. So This time it is not too soft and I didn't overprocess. So we will see. The funny thing about my dog. When I photograph her she wants to fall asleep. I don't think I am that slow at focusing. Had to hold a doggie treat above camera to keep her eyes open.

This was taken in my home office using natural window light with black velvet as the background.

Beautiful and sweet! You did really well with the lighting, focus and tones! Love her expression... like she is planning her escape! Haha! Looks great in the thumbnail too! It should be higher, but the voters haven't been kind to anyone in this challenge apparently.
