Having the shot taken this week is so limiting when it comes to pictures of Flynn! But this is a shot of Flynn crashed on the sofa after a good long hike in the woods on a cold winter afternoon.

Hi,

Her certainly look wiped out. I like how he seems to almost merge into the sofa. Nice conversion as well. Good luck this week.

Best wishes,

Steve S.

I like the closeness but I'd welcome more DoF so that all his face would be sharp and in focus.

Happy shooting,
Yakim.

The soft feel of the photo adds to its "nappy" feel.
Nice shot!

This is a beautiful shot of a very active breed in repose! Usually I'm not a fan of the "blown out" background but gosh, it really works here. I'm not sure if the image is soft/OOF or that is some kind of Blur, but I'd like to see how the face/ear area would be in focus, with the rest of the image soft there like you have it ... maybe also a bit more of a dodge to those two shadowed tonails.

Overall this is really, really a wonderful shot, great feel. But I am trying to offer useful suggestions/possibilities too, as people seem to enjoy that here!

Good luck w/the contest!

Thanks all. Actually the first picture I took with the D700 when it came out of the box. I agree DOF is a little too shallow, but I was playing with shallow DOF at the time. Probably shot at f4 or so would have been just right. Then again part of the reason I liked it was the over all softness, which is not a word usually used to describe him. ( Crazy terrorist has been used

I've never entered the weekly contest before, and i wanted to start so I rushed this one into use. Next time I'll have more time.

I may try and dodge those toe nails now that you mention it.

Seems everyone has a sleepy pet, they should all be out walking with their owner,probably they are naping also. Nice shot
