Michele -- A very becoming portrait of the dear Bella. I love it.
By the way, this is a wonderful breed of dog and they are so gentle in proportion to their size and strength. Excellent Picture. Hope you get to photograph the pups.
--Best to you, Jan

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOhhhhhhhhhhhhh wauuuuuw Michele!!!! One of my favourite breeds popping out from the screen:-) An excellent dogportrait with the sweetest expression in her face. Gorgeous dog - bull mastiffs have such a good temper and are so handsome dogs as well.
Do u call that drool?! You haven´t met Little Henry haha:-)
A precious photo and one of your best in my opinion says the doglover:-)
Take care, Michele
Annemette
PS: Yes, you´re right about the headaches - I also have a bit now. I had an accident on a racehorse in Cyprus many years ago, and my head has been hurting chronically ever since.

Any chance for you to keep one of the puppies when they´re ready to leave Bella?:-) If I lived around her I´d love to have one of them- that´s for sure! I guess you have to have everything in order though before getting a puppy.

Thank YOU for the wonderful and generous comment dear Annemette- I love this breed too (obviously- my niece-ha!) We've had so many fun times together when my sister travels- last summer she literally drug me thru the sand ( on the beach)) to visit some tiny dog that I hadn't seen as it was the size of a persons hand - that was an amazing experience :)) and quite a way to meet someone laying in the sand like I was -lol!
We do much better now :))
Keep a check on that lovely head my dear-
I worry about head injuries:(
Take Care,
Michele~

It's a great portrait of Bella, Michele. I hope it's a big treat you have for her. :) Very well taken, with excellent dof, it's difficult to get both the nose and eyes in focus when you are this close. Also, great light, exposure and colour. Very well done my friend.
All the best,
Joe

*LOL* I had such a good laugh when reading your comment, Michele:-) I know exactly how it is to walk such a big, powerful and happy dog:-) When walking Little Henry he´s so sociable and wants so badly to greet other dogs on our way. He´s quite a handful in such a situation:-)
Take care
