Buster, my buddy!
Uploaded: March 17, 2005
f/6.3, 1/250s, Tamron 28-75mm Xr Di, 63mm, 100 ISO, Manual with studio lighting. Buster was adopted from the humane society 6 years ago. This is my first attempt to use strobes / umbrellas for pet images. I have to work on the background as this was a dark green sheet and I used curves / multiply to darkent it. Many thanks to Jill Flynn and her excellent animal images for the inspiration (and information) to embark on this long, long road! :-)
