    Welcome...
    Kusek, Nice pic. Good example of DOF. What lens? Tight crop but works well since there's not much ground clearance!

    I love the expression on the dog. C&C? Well, I suppose the DOF is a bit shallow but that might have been the effect you wanted. I hope to see more pics from you.

    I shot this with my AF-Nikkor 18-55 (i loaned it out to a co-worker so i'm not exactly sure if that was the right #s)
    but that photo was shot at
    35mm, f/2.8, 1/200, ISO 200,

    You are brave to have more than one dachshund. Our one is more than stubborn enough for me! lol3.gif

    Great photo, and a good looking dog in #1. Miniatures?

    Nice shots, on the second shot I would have moved the pup a bit to eliminate the patch of white in the background.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    the red is a mini, the chocolate/tan is a regular, just a puppy. i believe he was not even 6 months old in that photo.

    The choc/tan is cool, don't see too many of those. Maxx (my buddy of almost 16yrs) is a black/tan mini... although most of the tan is now gray! lol3.gif

    Oh, these are your dogs! I loved that first photo as soon as you put it up but hadn't taken the time to comment. Great dogs!

    Peace,
