Default My Youngest in the Snow

So I go out to get some shots of the snow and naturally come back with a portrait of Brock, my youngest lab. He just turned 9. I've trained them to go into portrait-mode on-command: Whenever I say "who's that?!" they look around like this, desperately trying to find the cat or squirrel I'm supposed to be telling them to look at.

Christopher, nice shot, he does look like he is in the pose mode, what a ham bone! Great lighting on this also.

It's a beautiful shot. He's got a very sweet face and you've captured it well.

He really is comical...he usually looks a lot more animated than this with a constant grin across his face.

Lovely portrait of Brock, his face & eyes make him seem a wise old dog, he is gorgeous.
Thanks for posting him.
