Whippet Expression

Ruby looking directly at me as I waft one of her toys above my head in one hand and click my 450d in in the other.

Shot in our garden this afternoon with some backlit rim lighting catching her ears.

A couple of clicks later she was leaping on top of me to retrieve her toy :)

Ruby appears on my photostream on a fairly regular basis but always makes a fine image

Edited in Rawtherapee with a Kodak T-Max 100 film emulation

She is a very cute and clever dog, Phil. Love your shot. I had the pleasure to meet one of her kind at the hotel where we stayed during our holiday. She was so playful and everybody in the hotel enjoyed playing with her till late at night.
