This is my mom's new dog... my new sister. I like her well enough... but, well... she's a real bitch. *grin*

(get it...?? Female dog?? Bitch?)

Yeah. Well. Anyway, this was a happy bit of an accident... as most of my good stuff is. *sigh*

She's really a sweetie, and was playing with Jack, my bubble catching puppy, and my mom's other dog in our back yard.

I'm THRILLED with my high score in a Free Study! My second highest Free Study score ever! Thanks, folks!

Oh I liked this one! The fur flying and the sharp face is an excellent combo! You have a new genre to shoot now! I want you to take pics of my dog now lol. Congrats on a great finish in the FS!

The POV adding dramatic interest in the image! Like the expressions & DOF! slight punch in colors & treatment may have done still better from other voters..9!

Love the title! And what a fab shot ... the expression on the dog's face is wonderful. I like the soft toned colours and there is good detail in the face.
