This female donkey was so friendly and wouldn't back up for me to get her from a distance, unless I included the fence in the shot. Her wary friend stayeed further back to create this interesting DOF image.

Great DOF, and the patterning on that background donkey's face is perfect for her/him to be the "background donkey"!

Great sense of depth created here.

Lucky you! Perfect. No way to improve this unless the little shadow over the eye was not there, but this isn't a studio shot.

Judy, I swear, you should have been a VET! You are so good at the animal shots, and I believe that's b/c they love you as soon as you start cooing to them.. (you do coo when you shoot them don't you? :)

Great POV & the composition, with that one eye! She was just waiting for you to jump on her back & take her for a spin! the one in the back, not so sure what he's thinkin' probably, "Damn! wish she'd come over here & pay some attention to me! The paparazzi always go after Doris" LOL!!

I saw the thumb and knew I was in for a treat. This is 'Donkey Profound' and humorous to.

Oh how I ADORE this photo! I loved last night when we were on MSN, my message screen was right by her eyes, and it made her feel so much like part of the conversation! Man. . . I sure feel your kindred spirit to animals! Your photography conveys it too. You capture their souls!

Cool dualism going on. Very cool capture.

wow Judy. This is nice. Couldn't figure out the shadow till I read the notes. I have to admit, I can't take my eyes off the focused area to see the one in the back. That's ok because the area is oh so interesting.

An excellent use of DOF - very nicely seen and composed. Gotta love those eyelashes!
