 I know it's been done a million times before, but I was pleased with how this photo turned out. He was holding a bone in his paws...

Wow what a face, I stared at this and just got lost for a minute. I think for a guy this big, you need to close aperture to about 5.6. His nose is crisper than most of his face.

Good close up. I like how his paws are folded together. Color looks maybe a tad washed out, but still a good, solid entry in the challenge.

I love the paws! Like he's rubbing them together, plotting something. Nice capture.

Looks like he was posing for you. How long did you have to wait for this shot?

Nice. It looks like he is trying to decide what sauce would taste best on you.

Oh wow - posed more like a house cat. How cool. I think since the crop is so narrow, I might've played with a wide black border on the sides to balance it out, but that's just me. Great shot.
