Head Shots

Nope this thread isn't about what you thought.

I am still trying to master my Camera. This morning, I decided to see how it worked with some close head shots. I edited them a little with photo shop afterwards.

Cooper is still the photogenic one. He likes to stop and get his picture taken. Cowboy is full throttle all the time, so I never get any good shots of him.

Anyway............here they are.

I like the third one best, except that Coop's ear is flopped wierd.

nice photo's
I like the 1st and 4th pictures. nothing to distract from the dog's head. also we all read a photo like we read a book left to right.
wow I need to get back into photography it's been 33 years since I took it in high school.

Thet are great shots! My favorites are the 1st and 3rd. I agree with llewgor, pictures have a tendency of going left to right.

Don't know if you'd consider this a "headshot" its more like an upperbody shot but its close enough

Last one

I agree with llewgor on all counts!

Man, I never get any good head shots of Justus. I guess he's like Cowboy.. full throttle all the time. If I bend down to snap a shot at his eye level, I end up with a face full of doggy-licks.

Contest?!?

Ok, I'll go ahead and post the winning shot. It's a little blurry, but I'm sure I can get some sympathy
with the nature of the shot and how hard it was to get.

And, yes, he did have his two front teeth back by Christmas.

Ayres,

That looks like something out of a horror movie.
