Another Pooch Portrait

[Markw]

Hi all! I got another family member's dog a few days ago, and I quite like the result! So, I thought I'd share. This one had to be coaxed with a treat of something good to pose for this one. Background is 100% natural (besides what little was changed from curves adjustment).

Nikon D300s
Sigma 180mm F/3.5 EX DG HSM APO IF Macro

1/160s
ISO400
F/3.5
Handheld, indoors.

The only nit I have is maybe cropping out the ear fuzz on the left. I love the eye.......great focus!!

I thought the same thing about cropping the ear out! But I found that after I did, the rest of the face just looked kind of odd. There wasn't an anchor at all and it just seemed to look like a projectile or something. I don't know, it's hard to really say. I'll post the crop to show what I mean.

I don't know, it just looks a little odd to me..
