A beautiful b&w image, great light and I like how this image almost looks sketched, well done.

J'attends avec impatience que mon petit Django grandisse pour avoir un beau poil comme celui-ci

@Marie Le Corre: Merci, Marie! Couldn't you post another shot of Django one of these days? I am really curious to see how much he grew until today...

Nous avons eu un chien semblable pendant des années, il faisait preuve de beaucoup d'affection et d'initiative !
La photo met le sujet en valeur et le noir et blanc s'adapte parfaitement à la situation !

@ceanothe: Merci beaucoup!

GJC from Kyoto, Japan

Keep posting. If the topic is interesting to the photographer and the photographer really cares about it, most times the photo will be good. Here is a case in point. Nice light and good shot.

Mirko - I love it when you reveal this aspect of yourself - Mr. Brown is worthy of the attention. 'Good boy!' (to both of you)...

Beautiful dog, and nice composition y b/w.
I would like to see it also in color, to appreciate the tones of the skin.
I leave tomorrow. Thanks for your comment.

Is he an Australian Shepherd (Aussie?)? We've got one of those. They're the best!!!

1 Sep 2008 10:17pm

@Marcie: No, Marcie! He is a Border Collie. But as far as I know these two are quite close...

Well, Mirko, if you can't stop posting them, then don't -- because they're all delightful! This is beautifully composed, and has lovely light and textures.
