Nellie, a rescued boxer-pit bull. We have had her 12 years and she has been a true joy to have in our lives.

200 micron pinhole through a window. Nellie was kind kind enough to oblige by standing still or a few seconds.

wonderful dog spectre - it's as if Scottie is in the middle of beaming her up

i'm reminded of my mom's dog Bella - slightly different mechanism but there's something about the imposed impassiveness of their faces

This is remarkable, the image as well as the score. Nellie helped create an accidental double exposure, an example of the inherent chaos of long exposures. I'm really happy to see another adventerous soul entering challenges with a pinhole.

Oh yes, 4). tanguera thought it was roz. Another lovely compliment. I only knew roz for the amazing macros so this was a good opportunity to look over her profile. amazing. Thanks Johanna for this and all of your thoughtful comments.

Sometimes I think dogs judge us, are we good enough to be their masters. I think they are the true masters. This is my favorite.

i dont really understand what is meant by balance, so i have just been looking at this as a free study, that being said, this is strange and interesting, my first thought on seeing it was that it was like a dog version of the shroud of turin
