Default Pondering

Hey Guys,
I just got a new 50 mm 1.8 lens and love it! I had to share this one of my girlfriend's Chihuahua! She actually took it.
Regards,
E

While I generally encourage folks to "move in", This one may be a little too close. Shooting into the shadow side of the face requires a little flash fill or use of a reflector to put some catchlight life into the dog's eye. Also be aware of the background. By cropping close I guess you avoided the streetlight pole from sticking out of his head but had to sacrifice part of his ear. Glad to hear you are enjoying your new "nifty fifty."

I have been frustrated many times by cutting off. I think if the pups ears would be intact it would be much better.
