We were in the middle of this shoot when this guy and his dog came down the alley...I know, crazy huh? So, we threw him in a shot. Use your surroundings right?

Thanks for looking!

The shot was about the model not the guy and the dog.

Very commercial, high impact, high contrast and what great results, and you had to be pleased with the results of that happy accident

For something so coincidental they all fit together quite well in an interesting composition. Shot is excellent.

I think the dog and his person fit right into this pic like it was already planned. Very unique and interesting shot....I like it.

As a rule, I don't generally like off-kilter shots like this, but this one is terrific. Everything fits together very well. The angled shot (and the contrast) works with the raw nature of the subject. Very nice!

Very nice shot.

What was the lighting setup? Just direct sun light?

Very direct sun from overhead and a sb600 to add some shadow effect.

Thank you all for your comments.. Best of luck to all in your future!
