My mom's baby, Sophie, always the fashonista...

I'm tired of the "get on their level" animal advice and am trying to find new angles that portray their personalities just as well as being on the floor... #642856Tom Roe April 23, 2007
This may or may not be helpful, but I found that keeping the shot about the animal, and using the eyes as a guide to the animals personalities helps. I found while observing an animals behavior that their eyes tell much about the personilty.... wheter they're happy or sad... etc. I'm not sure if it helps, but at least I tried #4200347Jagadeesh Andrew Owens April 23, 2007
Exactly - I couldn't agree with you more. Thanks, Tom. #4200409Brooke Jantz April 23, 2007
I think Sophie's showing some definite personality here! Love her little tongue hanging out. Great capture Sipho... #4200422Jagadeesh Andrew Owens April 23, 2007
Many thanks, Brooke. #4200520Suzanne M. McAndrew April 23, 2007
I think this level works perfect to capture the motion in the dress. And you definitely captured her personality. I love this image. #4201018Susan Fox April 23, 2007
I think the point of view works good here. Love that Sophie's face is in focus but there is movement of her body/tail.She looks like she is dancing in her dress. Love it! #4201158

Thank you both, Suzanne and Susan. Big hugs to Jasper! #4203383Robyn Gwilt June 21, 2007
Love it!! However, Toffee, (who is also female) is currently wearing her South African rugby jersey with a big 2 on it, and looks decidedly butch - I think she might rip that dress off Sophie if she had a chance!! Its just too cold here to go fashionista - common sense prevails!Margie Hurwich June 21, 2007
