Glick & Abbey

[tirediron]

Meet Glick & Abbey, the happiest pair of border collies I've ever seen. These are working dogs, and their humans didn't want pictures of them all fluffed and puffed; I'd hoped for a better sky, but at this time of year in Victoria, if it's not raining, you say, 'Thanks!' and carry on. As always, C&C very welcome.

Nice set. The owners should be very pleased with these.

Agree with Carol, great set John! These two are beautiful, very nice!
We lost our Miss Gabby earlier this year and we have been tinkering with the idea of getting a new friend, Border Collie is one of the breeds we are thinking about going with, so eager to work and please and beyond loyal, they are a wonderful breed!

Very nice! I have a black & white schnauzer and have difficulty with the contrast. Any tips on shooting this type of contrast or something in post?

Thanks! Mostly just getting the lighting right; these were all done with a speedlight and medium (36") softbox, bu there was some minor tweaking of whites, highlights, and local adjustment in LR to get the chest fur just the way I wanted it.

All are great, but #4 really shows the working dog aspect. Wonderful!

Nice set of photos overall and I particularly like the third one - something unique and fun and the fence w/plants in front frames them so well. The last one is a particularly beautiful close up. Dogs seem like they pose better than people! LOL

I like the posing and framing, but to me, these images all seem slightly underexposed.

Hmmm... I did dial them down slightly so as not to 'lose' any of the white fur, but they seem okay on my monitor.
