BetterPhoto.com Editor's Pick  
"Old Shep"
"Old Shep"

Enterred in Animals. I saw this old dog at training and immediately thought of the title, he has cataracts in real life BTW.

Shot on an overcast day and the image was changed to greyscale to suit the mood of the photo.

ExposureTime : 1/125Sec
FNumber : F3.5
ISO: 400
FocalLength : 14.50(mm)

  Thank you all for your kind words, ver very nice of you! I am glad you liked this kindly old dog.

John the next male dog I get I am going to call Shep, I like the ring to it.

Doc, I can't find Walter Brennon singing 'Old Shep", I didn't know he sang it.
