Festive Reds and Ruby by phil_howcroft

Festive Reds and Ruby

Ruby wrapped up in one of the many blankets she has

I was going to put a santa hat on her but I could not find it, so it's just reds and Ruby

Maybe the santa hat will appear before the 25th :)

Shot on f1.8 and a high ISO on my 450D

A few minutes later she was racing oround the house with a fluffy in her mouth, telling me it was time for her tea ! Very demanding are little whippets !

She looks like a 'Min Pin" here! But not! She would be horrified to hear that! Lovely red beside her dark face!

So pretty....I think red is her colour! No Santa hat please dad she says!
Little bits of grey around her eyes & under her chin....comes to us all Ruby!

What a serene look! You can tell she is well-loved.

She's beautiful! I love that direct gaze. My Murphy hates when I put my camera up to my face and averts his eyes every time...sigh!

Such a clear lovely capture of her....beautiful sweet face!! Our Charlie has many blankets and pillow also. If you throw even a rug on the floor he claims it as his. He's a snuggle bug too!! She looks great in red!

I prefer her like this, Phil. I think she would look a bit ridiculous with a santa hat on. The red wrapping adds enough colour as it is. Your portrait capture is wonderful.

Thanks everyone for your very kind words. As many of you know, I post my "better" images on flickr (and I use the word better with inverted commas). Well I posted this shot on flickr and it made the "explore page". Explore is a bit like the popular page, but on a grander scale due to the enormity of flickr. Ruby as I speak has got 3,500 views and 41 faves in just over 12 hours !! Well done Ruby :) . Well pleaseed at making the explore page
