Excellent work here Amy. Great choice of DoF and perspective. #778241

Amy Weiland November 04, 2007

Thanks, Marcie! The hard part was getting the dog to stay put long enough to focus. :) #5026170

How DO you you keep your floors so clean all the time??? #5035470

Thanks Donna and Vicki! Vicki... I vacuum and sweep before the camera comes out. Seriously.. I do. I shot some pics of Luci the other day, and had to spend so much time patching out dust on the hardwood... it is just worth it to do the prep work. :) #5058113

Thanks so much, Vicki! It was a tough shot that way. We had several attempts before we got it right. He's a good dog... and was worn out from a day on the farm. #5065033

Thanks Deb! Laid flat on the floor with the ball right in front of me... and dog considerably behind. hardest part was getting Marley to sit still and stop trying to lick the camera. #5099812

I love this, Amy! I hope he got someone to play ball! Nice selective focus! #5595353

Amy Weiland March 05, 2008

Thanks Terry. I never realized how hard it would be to get a 13 month old golden retreiver to sit still with a tennis ball in the room. ;-) #5595454
