Who Doesn't Love a Good Stick?

By TripleDshake34
This is a picture of my 6 year old German Shepard. She was in the back yard and she grabbed a stick and it was almost like she screamed at me take my picture and put me on EPZ. Her name is Lakota and she would love to know what you thing of her picture.

Hope you enjoy!!

Danny I am deeply impressed. You get better and better with each image you post. The crop is great, Lakota looks beautiful and it works so well in monochrome. Better print this one dog, it's a cracker for sure.

Hey you can start a whole series, next one can be "Who doesn't love a good rock" hehehe

Well done Homey

could do with more light onto the front, its hard though when the sun is behind as in this pic - it means balancing a reflector against your knees and taking the picture - the joy of doing the reflector is that you can get better contrast into the hair and shape around the face. does look though that you have a perfect model to practice these shots on Grin keep them coming.

Well Lakota. I think you are a very pretty dog. I don't think I'd like to attempt to take away your stick... Tell your owner I think they have taken your picture very well and captured you beautifully. Pat pat on the head. barmymarny x
