Elsie Portrait

Elsie our little whippet puppy, 4 months old now.

Here she is sat on a foot stool, by our front window, daylight streaming through the window from the right of the frame.

Shot with my Sony A6000 and Sony 50 mm f1.8

This is f2.2

Cracking shot don't you think?

Beautiful

It is a cracking shot Phil! Elsie is very photogenic, she hasn’t Rubys bent over ear, both beautifully perky! She’s a beautiful shade of grey.

[Beryl Lloyd]

Such a beauty and a super portrait of her -- just look at those grey/blue eyes

[Phil Howcroft]

@happypat thanks pat, glad you like this , I think the official word for the grey tones in the world of whippets is "blue" , good shout re' Ruby's trademark ears :)

[Phil Howcroft]

@beryl thanks beryl , I always focus on the nearest eye for my portraits (dogs or humans) , I love using natural light too

[Carole Sandford]

Super shot - just fancy, a puppy staying still for a photo :-D

[Alison Hewitt Bailey]

Aww, such a sweet capture of Elsie! She's shaping up nicely as a canine model, Phil, you're obviously teaching her well.
Glad you're up and about, hope you're feeling 100% fit again, or will do very soon.
