Default A blonde model foto session .......

Well at the weekend my wife and I decided to go into the country and take a friend out for lunch. In doing so I captured some interesting shots that you will see during the week. However, on returning to our friends home we met some friends of hers that were staying with her and they were in Wellington to show off their 3 Afghan dogs. I just had to get my camera out and this is the result of fotos of one of the dogs Leigh.

I have done a little PP for cropping, framing and gaussan blur in the background.

Never thought I would be taking fotos of blondes!!!!

Great shots, you really captured her personality! The focus is crystal clear and I especially love the third one.

Ah your talking my language here, show dogs,lol, you did a fabulous job with these shots. The 2nd and 3rd shots are really wonderful. You captured the beauty and the essence of what this dog is all about.
Wonderful job !! (Not that I haven't liked your harbor shots, those were quite incredible too )

Wow Bernz, these portraits are absolutely gorgeous. You had a great model. I love all of them but the third one has got to be framed and put in a very special place. Amazing work buddy.
