I'm not a fan of football and usually avoid Superbowl parties, but this year it was a family event at the in-laws so I went. The game made no sense and seemed to upset everyone by the end, because the Patriots made a whole bunch of bad mistakes.
Instead of watching the game, I practiced shooting some very low light inside photos. This shot of my husband's sister and brother-in-law's dog was my favorite. She's a coon hound of some sort from a Southern rescue. My camera brought out a different side from her usually boisterous personality and this photo best captured her puzzlement about what I was doing.
I'm kind of seeing a "come hither" look here! you clearly brought out the best in her. Nice job in low light. I always try to not use flash when I can, even though its usually a happy accident if it works out. :)
Lol! The only thing that could pull me away from the game would be my camera! ;) I hope you had fun even if your not into football! Great capture of Dixie! That low light is tricky stuff!
LH--Great minds again! I went to my friends Super Bowl Party and laid on the carpet and took photos of their Lucca! I may post her shot this week! Shy Dixie looks like such a sweetheart!
Hope you have a terrific week! :-)
This is a superb shot - maybe it's also that "i'm tired and all these people are making too much noise for me to sleep" look! Makes me laugh when my Mum's dogs look knackered! She looks like a sweet dog - nice catch
ohh, sounds like you had fun!! you got a great shot and you had such a handsome subject to work with! using your nifty fifty I see! you got great results with it here!!
Yes, I saw that same look in my orange cat's eyes when I photographed him om Michael...again. He was very suspicious because the last time I used flash. Very nice portrait. :-) Sorry that you had to go to a Superbowl party.
@5unflow3r You know that I would much rather have been playing on 365 than watching football, right? Sheesh, now I'm behind again and all for the sake of a losing football game. At least the food and company was good.
great companion for your sister-in-law and brother-in-law ... she looks very contented in a reserved sort of way. time well spent on a super bowl day ... ;-)
She looks so sweet, what a great capture! I watched the game to the end...what a nailbiter! For my boss, it was fantastic...he was there. Unfortunately it did not guarantee me one week of good mood. Bummer...
Hope you have a terrific week! :-)
I'm not the only person to find the Super Bowl confusing! yay
