6th June 2014 - Catching the early rays

I couldn't resist this one. Finlay was sitting on the decking in the early morning sun taking it easy. Since he woke me at 4am barking at the birds he was feeling a little tired and just getting comfy for a nap. Lucky Finlay!! LOL!!

Many thanks for your great comments on yesterday's shots. I am going to rework the Black Pig shot and see if I can improve it.
He is very cute and I am sure he is not at all spoilt.

How were you able to get the background so dark? Great shot!

A beautiful portrait of Finlay!!

@mrsvanpatten Many thanks!! I was sitting in my living room and Finlay is sitting outside on the decking with the early light falling on his face. I am using my 100-400mm lens as I was trying for bird shots on the feeder. The light falling on his face has knocked the background dark. I haven't done anything other than crop and convert to B&W using nik Silver efex pro.
