LOL! Are you sure - remember, we've all seen you armed and dangerous! Love those eyebrows - nice one, Carolyn! #188267

Carolyn M. Fletcher November 14, 2004

Pretty sure. LOL #908539

Wally Orlowsky November 14, 2004

Fantastic portrait with great lighting, Carolyn ... he looks like he could be sleuthing for Scotland Yard. #908543

Carolyn M. Fletcher November 14, 2004

I don't think he was much of a sleuth. He wouldn't even get out of the car. #908545

S J November 14, 2004

Terrific portrait and lighting! #908548

Joy Brown November 14, 2004

GREAT dog portrait, Carolyn - perfect in black and white! #908565

Carolyn M. Fletcher November 14, 2004

Thanks Sanjay and Joy. I had no choice with the black and white. I shot this inside of a blue car and he turned out quite blue. This was the only thing I could think of to get the blue out. #908580

Kathleen Clemons November 14, 2004

He looks like he's posing! Nice work! #908586

Colleen Braun November 14, 2004

Murry Grigsby November 14, 2004

Did he have a magnet on his bottom? :0) Or are you too young to remember the little black and white scotties with magnets?? Great portrait Carolyn! The light, textures and clarity are super!! #909013

Monika Sapek November 14, 2004

A very nice photo, Carolyn! I really like those a little sad eyes and nose like a button in the furry dog’s face. It looks so nice in black and white. He reminds me a bit about my old dog, a giant schnauzer…

what kind of lighting did you use with this shot? the scotty in my gallery came out looking like a black blob.. #1632328

Carolyn M. Fletcher July 24, 2005

This was shot outdoors on a sunny day. The dog was in a blue pickup truck and he came out quite bluish, so I changed him to black and white. #1632378

Stephen Zacker August 22, 2005

Wonderful portrait and lighting #1752385
