This is an interesting pet photograph with good detail and superb colour. Focus is excellent. Composition is also very good indeed. Lighting is impressive.

Cleo,

If you dare tell my daughter this Buddy guy is on this site, I'm dead. She loves these little heart throbs. They are so suited to small children, even us old timers love them. Cheers, Don (grassroots08)

Comment from Anne
This is a stunning picture of this beautiful little dog. I think you have captures the essence of his personality in this picture. How BRAVE HE WAS AND HOW SAD THAT HE DIED. I KNOW THEY MUST BE DEVASTATED THAT HE IS GONE AND THE WAY HE DIED. EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS IS JUST EXCELLENT. GOOD LUCK IN THE CONTEST. OOPS. JUST LOOKED UP AND SAW EVERYTHING WAS CAPITAL LETTERS. THE WAY I TYPE, I WAS JUST TOO LAZY TO GO BACK AND REDO EVERYTHING.
