Default Fashionable Dog in Fall
2007-09-30Fall070010-166

Our dog is a horrible, horrible model. She looks away every time you point a camera at her (someone's been hitting her with the flash, I think, but it's not me!) and really the only way to get her to do much of anything is with a piece of sausage or burger in one hand and the D40 in the other. That's why I was totally blown away when this shot came through Lightroom. Eye contact with the lens?! Impossible! But it happened.

It's amazing how camera shy some animals can be, a little bit of bribing sure does help. This is a great capture that you managed to get, show it to her and once she realizes how cute she is I'm sure she'll pose for you more often, even without bribes of yummy food.lol.
