A portrait of my dog, Darby. C&C appreciated.

Thanks, Lauren

Darby looks like a tail wagging, face kissing, sweetheart....the best kind.

She is indeed, Eric! And so is her shaggy yellow "sister!" Add the 3 cats and I have my hands full.

As you've said before, a definite Hoover look-alike!

Did you sharpen the haircoat? I think I'd like to see a little more 'sparkle' in the eyes, but nicely done!

Would love for Darby and Hoover to meet!

Did not sharpen her coat in #1. Do you think it needs it or do you think it is too much already? Here is another version with the eyes brightened a bit. I did also do a bit of sharpening on her back but it doesn't look like much of a difference. Did not do anything to any other part of her coat.

What do you think of #2?

Snowgirl

I like the eyes brightened up a bit. Wouldn't sharpen the coat though - I think it's fine in the first shot.

Hi Lauren.....I realy like number two. Fixing the eye made a big difference.....

Thanks, Gary!

Eia

the second - the anticipation shows!

Thanks, Eia! The only thing she ever anticipates is food and taking a "puppy nap." She is nearly 5 but we still take puppy naps together.
