Schnauzer Mardi Gras

[CherylL]

I cleared an area in the basement for the backdrop and now have more room to move the lightstand around. I had more room to use the 85mm this time.

My husband helped me build the floor. A cheap pack of vinyl planks glued on 3 boards. Quincy did not like the floor and went cat like with 4 paws out. I used a furry rug and he still did not like the set up. Snickers wanted in every shot and Oscar was so so on the new floor. Took photos in 3 short sessions in a week period.

One flash in a parabolic umbrella left center. I tried a dome flash thru an umbrella lower right later in the week and don't think it made much difference. Added light in post.

I calibrated my new monitor and not sure if these look too dark. They look bright on my screen, but on my phone darker.

I had to give it the winner, you can thank Mr Quincy as his look is a classic.

Nice pics but their expressions crack me up, it's like they're thinking, "Why me, Lord?"

Yep that is Quincy

The pups get excited when I bring out the camera. They go into a schnauzer beard wrestling mode. They push and shove each other to get brushed first. This goes on when I am taking casual shots or outside getting flower shots. They know camera equals treats.

I was trying to get a casual shot of Oscar the other day and Quincy kept walking in front of him.

Gotta love Quincy! And I like the stuffed dog watching what they're up to.

The shot of Quincy is my favorite.
