'Good Boy'

This lovely black labrador suddenly appeared at my side as I was taking a shot on the beach. So I told him to sit and stay which he did and I took his photo.
Good dog. I like the stark contrast in this photo and the paw prints in the sand. You can tell it's in color, but it's almost "B&W"

@sophiaz

Yes, you are exactly right and I had to lighten it quite a bit to show the dog's features so therefore white sand! (I didn't think of converting to b&w)

A really good dog. You could even try to sit down to take a picture of dog against the sky ;)

Super shot, wasn't he a good dog!

@alessandro

Oh yes, what a good idea! But his owner was calling him as she thought (wrongly) he was bothering me so I guess I would have missed the shot completely!

awww what a cute face!

I love black Labradors and still missing ours. It's really difficult to photograph them and get any detail in their fur. Great photo.

Great shot of the dog and the beautiful background. Did you framed the pic. to give it as a painting to his owner? They will be very pleased with it.

@jocasta

Thank you. Strangely enough I called to see a friend today and she has two golden labs but currently fostering a black lab so I got some shots of him. Perhaps I'll post him too! (Very hard to lose a pet.)

looks like he's saying, 'come and play '

@otterz

Maybe he was - and maybe he thought I had a biscuit because I told him to sit!
November 6th, 2014  
Oh, I like this! He's so handsome and I like the paw prints around him!
November 6th, 2014  
Another sweetie... look at all those doggy feet around him. Cute.

Very cute capture!!
November 6th, 2014  
He is so sweet and how wonderful that he does exactly as he is told. Maybe he thought he was going to get a treat.
November 6th, 2014  
What a great expression
November 6th, 2014  
too cute

What a cute dog and photo. I hope you were able to meet the owner. Reading and see that you met the owner. Read what you wrote in the beginning of this post and it is hard to get really clear with black animals and ducks that are black too. Luckily you were able to lighten up this photo. FAV

I love labs, and this one is a real sweetie :)

Adorable! He looks like our Diesel, only younger. This guy doesn't look like much more than a pup! Great shot!

Congratulations on making the Trending Page. Well deserved.

What a good boy...he must be used to having his photo taken! Handsome capture.
November 7th, 2014  
How cute and he was willing to have his picture taken. How gracious of him.
