This guy looks exactly like my boy Bruno who is half Golden retriever and half rotty lab. All six siblings are also jet black like this. HUGE heads, HUGE bodies, gentle as can be. Mine is 120 lbs when he's not too fat and will be 14 next week. I'm going to have to copy this picture to try to get the perfect portrait of Bruno before it is too late.

I like the soft colors of this picture. I think the vase (?) is a little distracting to the view outside, though.

Sweet expression - personally I would have liked to see this cropped in much tighter so that the eyes and muzzle largely filled the shot.

Hey Judy - why wasn't this your Low Key challenge entry ??

Great example of Low Key, and set's off Tanks character a treat as well.

Very nice.

He's gorgeous and that's a really nice low key portrait of him. He looks as if his name fits him perfectly.

uh oh - this one will likely suffer from "poor callibration of voter monitor syndrome". I'm looking at it on a poorly calibrated monitor where it is really dark - will reserve my vote till I get home and can see it better.

Love this image, Judy!! Perfectly captured - especially with the pouty bottom lip. As usual, I'm mystified by the score. Clearly I don't have my finger on the pulse here.
