About Hi, I'm Lillie and I think I've been here before....this is a shot of me at 10 months old and growing fast. That's my human in the background, I think it's also called a Sophie. I borrowed another human's magic box thing, set it on a delay and posed.This was quite tricky to do with paws and focussing was very hard but I got the desired effect.....all we dogs know what humans look like so I was pleased that the Sophie thing didn't come out clearly:)

Your title and your About made me smile. I'm still smiling. Such a very cute idea. You are a beauty, Lillie. You did such a wonderful job, I'm sure your human will lend you the magic box another time.

I've always wondered just what they really think of us! Great shot and even better "about", Ray! I like the details in Lillie's coat, and a great pose.
Dave.

This is very interesting and creative work you have done here my friend which I like.

The DOF effect is obvious and very pleasant.

I did find many of your emails with my brother list of important mails. Thanks a lot for being so good friend to my brother.

Mary Slade   {K:40918} 10/19/2006
Well, Lillie can pose and capture herself beautifully! Such a smile of happiness! To see the textures of her wonderful coat. Whoever taught her how to use the camera did a very good job...Ray!

Kes     {K:18269} 10/20/2006
Hi Ray, this shot is dog-gone-good!

:)

..of note is how the angle of the outline of the dog's body brings the viewer's attention to the person in the background. Great idea!
Best regards,
Kes

Doyle D. Chastain   {K:99493} 10/25/2006
I'm pleased too Lillie.

NOW . . . slowly . . . back away from the magic box . . . look confused . . . and DON'T let Ray know you have this much talent already . . . (He's a MUCH slower learner)! Let Sophie take the blame . . . for the photo . . . NOT for the wet spot on the floor by the vase! Hehehehehee.

:)

Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

I am at work just now with a few loose moments in what has been a difficult working week and I couldn't resist replying.......I love your comments my dear friend, they always brighten the day....many thanks Doyle. I hope to be commenting on Friday, 'see' you then. My very best wishes to you as always.......Ray


Sheila Carson   {K:5825} 10/26/2006
Very sweet Ray. Lillie has grown up to be such a beautiful dog! I love the black and white conversion, it works really well with Lillie's fur. Well done my friend!


Alison DuFlon   {K:35778} 10/26/2006
I like how you have taken this with Lillie so prominent in the foreground, yet giving us a glimps of her owner. Alison


Dubravko Grakalic   {K:24332} 10/27/2006
great portraoit of nice dog!


Rachel Leah   {K:24704} 10/29/2006
Haha I love this! Geez, good job Lillie! I love the DOF, emphasizing that abviously this was the dog's doing! Can't believe she's only 10 months old! WOw, they grow fast, she looks a lot older! Anyway I love this! Contrast, clarity, lighting, and everything is great as usual! :)
