Great initial impact from this very sharp, well composed, nice POV image of a gorgeous dog.
She certainly does look happy.
One of my favourite breeds, although I do not now and never had one.
A great companion and loyal friend.
Well done!

What a gorgeous, smiling German Shepard. The lighting is perfect, the background compliments his coloring. Eyes are open. Great job on all fronts.

Great job! Thanks for sharing!

Oh be still my heart. What a lovely German Shepherd. This portrait shows the true and typical face of a lovely female. She seems to be posing for the camera for you. Very nice focus and lighting. Wish I had a six.

Comment from Michael Robinson
I absolutely love taking pictures of dogs and one of my favorites is the German Shepard. This breed was common to most house holds when I was coming of age in the late 60s and 70s, but now I do not see as many of them. For the most part they have been replaced by the Pit Bull and certain other breeds. I have nothing against the pit or those other breeds but I still adore the German Shepard. It is truly America's dog.

Hi Lori,
I love dogs and to me there is never a bad doggie photo.I love the expression on her face as if she is saying,"Are you kidding me?".I also like how you filled the frame with her.I'm sure this has great initial impact for other viewers.This is a great close-up shot with the focus,
clarity and lighting all being executed very well.In ending,I really like the addition of the black vignette.Great job~
Angelheart :)
