ElGordo,
I thank you for your comment .
But I don't believe there was any backlash from the voters here, because this is not my usual type of shot for one and also I am not that well known here .
I think it got crushed for 3 reasons.
1) The chessy backdrop,which I will never use again! LOL
2) The funky lighting which was an experiment,I lighted the front girls face with a goldreflector from a ceiling light and the angel in the back had two stropes with umbrellas covered in off white sheets . It all came out pretty much as I had planned ,I just did not have enough room to get back far enough to get the DOF to where I wanted it .
3)The title seemed to confuse some commenters ,there was no story behind the shot ,nor was I trying to make a statement.
It was just me spending good time with my family and all of us having fun with my hobby and that is what we came up with nothing more .
Thanks to everybody who took the time to comment on it .

Thanks Marg ,it was such a shame that I missed the shot, I saw the bird ,I knew where the light was and I was going for a good shot like that ,but when it came time to capture it ,I just was not fast enough! LOL
One of these days I will get that bird on that sign with his full shadow ,it is a afternoon shot ,I have seen him on that sign a few times since,but did not have the camera bag with me . I will get it !!!!LOL

Great shot of a rare breed .Where did you take that shot ?
I had a shorthair cousin of the Bernese 18 years ago ,it was called Entlebucher Sennenhund or Swiss Cattle dog ,what a great animal he was ! Max was his name ,thanks for posting this shot, I have not thought about that dog in years :)

Thanks Kelly ,they are my daughters dogs .
And yes there is not a stick that is safe from destruction when they allowed to play free. The white one shreds them and the brown one runs all over with the same one .:)
