My Girls are always willing models. I did a shoot like this some time ago.
Thank you all for your votes and great comments.
Yes, those are her paws coming through as well. I had several with only the head or 1 paw. This was the only one with both paws. It was hard for her to balance on just the cardboard frame, since it wasn't "straight" but had a "V" shape.
For a long time this was sitting on an "8". That would have been cool :-P, even though, it is still a PB.
In case anybody is interested:
I shot this in a studio set up. A softbox from left top, a GoDox flash without modifiers (because I haven't got one for the flash) from the right. If you look closely you can see the 2 light sources in her left eye.
It's the flash that created the shadows, and honestly it was a fluke. I wanted the dog to be "evenly lit", hence the 2 lights. I think I even had a white sheet on the floor as a reflector and my ceiling in the room is fairly low and also white.
I used my 50 mm Canon lens on f 11, 1/200.

I would love to know your F stop and shutter speed. I just can't image how you got such clarity and DOF, plus no movement of the pup. Tripod? This is a crazy good image!

Not sure who possibly gave this a 3, 4 or even a 5…just a wonderful image, well-lit, with extreme cuteness to spare. Congratulations on a well-deserved blue!
I love this, Gaby! Your dog is an absolutely gorgeous delight. And photographed to perfection. This was my equal top pick along with Wendy's. Congrats on the blue.
Gaby .. this is brilliant .. !!! ..
what a wonderful little model you have ..
i had a quick glance at this challenge and was going to vote and comment but time got away ..
looks like the 9 I would have given you wouldn't have made a whole heap of difference ..
many congrats on your blue ribbon .. pride of place on you profile page and an awesome score .. :)
Cute, very expressive face and a great pose, looks like paws coming out of the hole. Like the lighting choice from the right and how the shadows are cast. Nice bright and clean image.
OH MY GOODNESS!!! This is a wonderful image. Perfect for this challenge, perfectly focused, almost a 3D effect.
I love... love... love this image. I hope you win! On top of that what a cute pup.
