Description

My baby, my husky Tobias.

Just practising some animal photography with a very willing participant -- too willing, in fact. He wouldn't stay still and spent most of the time pouncing on me! He's been cooped up inside for a few days as the bushfires in my area meant it was not safe to go for walks, so when we did go outside it was an energy explosion.

Photos is way too noisy so will work on that next time: quite happy for an extra pointers. :dummy:

I love how you were able to capture his energy and enthusiasm. His tongue lolling out of his mouth gives him more personality than you see in many pet pictures. I feel you need to work on not forcing him to be the center of your picture. By having him in the center and blurring the background he pops out forcefully. But this same effect can be artfully done with a ground shot showing the colored leaves. It adds color to the shot, sets the scene of the season, and will still make Tobias jump out as the focus with his adorable personality. Thanks for sharing such a fun shot. I hope to see more of Tobias soon!
