Charlie Snapshot


Here is a snapshot of Charlie, the cute dog of my mother. It was really just a snapshot and I like how he is portrayed but I disliked the background of the photo. With “post-crop vignetting” I could make him become the focus of the photo, because with the darkened corners the background looked less intrusive. I hope you like the photo. I have more dog photos on my blog if you like to take a look. Continue reading Charlie Snapshot

Charlie Is Very Photogenic


My mother has a cute dog, and it’s fun to take pictures with him. First of all because Charlie is very photogenic, and apart from that he loves attention and that’s what he always gets.

But the thing is, with animals, you can just mindless click the shutter button, subjects like dogs or … Continue reading Weekly Photo Challenge: Opposites

Here is one dog photo that I shot in a forest in Reinfeld. I had a small talk with the dog owner, we talked about the forest and the area, and at the end I asked him if I could take a picture of his dog. While it’s allowed to photograph pets of strangers, it’s sometimes better to ask anyway. Some people start a drama if you take pictures of their dogs, it doesn’t make sense, but that’s how it is in Germany. The owner of this cute white dog however was very friendly and happy that I wanted to … Continue reading Cute White Dog
