Dog Photo for CC...

[mrpink]

saw a couple of dog threads popping up here so that gave me some inspiration to try some of my own.

His name is Tyson, he is a 2 year old Vizsula (and as I found out, a very good model).

Shot with a D90, 1/80, f5 @ 22mm with a 18-250mm Sigma lens. Flash off camera, up and camera right fired at 1/4 power with sto-fen diffuser. Pop up fill flash at 1/16th. Natural light from camera left.

Let me know what you think of it.

DISCLAIMER!

Maybe at some point in my photography hobby, I will be "good" enough to give any C + C, but until then please disregard any and all of my comments. http://www.thephotoforum.com/forum/photography-beginners-forum-photo-gallery/192755-giving-receiving-c-c.html

That being said, I find myself wanting less dead space above, and more space to the left. Vizsla's are great dogs though!

after looking at it, I agree with it being too centered. I feel I need the dead space above him to keep the whole "under the tablecloth" idea or theme. Also, toned down the watermark a bit- seemed heavy for the photo.

here is a quick edit:

I will pass that link along to the wife.

I kind of like it with some texture though.

Table cloth?

I like the dog, although I would prefer him/her without the collar, but is your table cloth that wrinkly? Don't ask me over for dinner

More seriously, the dog is great (light, expression, etc) but the table cloth just kills it for me. A big chunk of what makes photos work or not are the details and you just need to learn how to use an iron...

Also, although I agree with the dog being too centered originally, you moved him/her to far right in you second post.

I agree with ironing the sheet...table cloth whatever it is. That's the first thing I thought when I saw the photo.

It's a $2 sheet, or what is left of it after cutting it up to make a lightbox.
