My Boy Duke.

Jamesbjenkins

I'm posting this in People cause Duke might as well be human with as much personality as he's got. Feel free to redirect me, Cuban.

I haven't posted many images for community enjoyment and/or C&C, but I'm going to try to start doing that more.

1. The "Are you going to throw that tennis ball or what, dude?!" Face.



2. Single minded focus on the tennis ball



3. Monochrome shot - my favorite



4. If Duke had blue eyes...

Enjoy! Feel free to C&C or just share your own pup shots. I've never done pet photography for a client before, but this was fun. Getting a yellow lab to cooperate ain't easy!

did he ever get the ball? In number 2 I sense he is silently PLEADING with you to throw the ball, sigh.

That dog LIVES for the ball. I'm pretty sure it's his deity.

And you're right about the pleading. If I want to get his attention, all I have to do is take the ball from him, and he'll follow me around until I give it back. He's one cool pup.

Not sure what I think of Duke's blue eyes in #4...a little odd, and the crops with the bottom of his snout cut off feel vaguely unfinished. But the pictures still look very nice -- you've clearly captured Duke's personality and energy, and the lighting is great.
