Ruby Relaxing - It's a hard llife being a Whippet

This is Our little rescue whippet, relaxing between a nice soft blanket.

It's a hard life being a whippet in the Howcroft house.....lots of walks, nice comfy sofa's, chairs and beds, nice food and treats, comfy blankets, nice 'owners' (Jane and I) lots of TLC.

I think you can tell she has a nice life. Here she is watching Jane looking out of the window.

Shot using light from the window with my nifty 50 on my 450D.

Converted to monochrome, because the blanket was bright red and would have competed too much with Ruby !


Nice capture and processing.

Such a beautiful shot and what a gorgeous whippet! We too have a whippet, Oscar. I struggle to photograph him nicely though as he's rather bouncy and my 'motion' photography is poor. I'll have to persevere!

Sounds bliss Phil...she knows which side her bread is buttered!! I think this would have looked good in colour too....I like the idea of red & black!

@happypat thanks Pat, the red blanket was reflecting a bit of colour back in Ruby's face , so I converted to monochrome

I love Ruby. This one gets a big fave from me. And I can tell that she has had a really rough life at your house. I was just talking to my MIL who lost her dog last week. She was lamenting not having enough pictures. So keep taking shots of the beautiful Ruby
