Adorable! Who couldn't love that? Good use of selective DOF too. It draws the eye immediately to the point of interest but leaves the expression enough in focus to tell the rest of the story.
Thanks for looking everyone. Well she was very patient with me. It was very dark and I had a hard time getting the focus to lock so I went manual. Needless to say, she got a couple cookies by the time I was able to actually get the shot.
f/1.4 1/40th ISO 1600
If you ever want to get frustrated I suggest trying to use AF on a black dog in very low light. :bash

Neat pic of a cool looking and obviously well-trained doggie.

Now tell me how you get a good exposure on a black dog?
I have a black Miniature Schnauzer and I just cant seem to get a decent picture of him without messing up the background exposure.
Haven't tried flash!
