 Or at least that's what my son calls her. Her name is sofia or sofie for short. But the two and a half year old calls her "Chopie". the best of 130 shots when she really wanted to run.

Among so many fine dog portraits, this one seems to stand out just a bit further in revealing the dog. Mostly to do with the way the amber eyes are surrounded by such an expanse of darkening brown. Background perfect of course for the dog. (If I see another picture as good as this one of these soulful hounds I may have to break down and get one. 130 shots worth it).

OKay, this has to be the cutest on here, bar a few others. I love the fact you choose the snow as a background, it really makes him pop. His whole persona is sharp, crisp, and clean, you have really brought out the true colours here. You can sense the trust in his eyes, and I actually like his collar, it makes him less showdog and more of a well loved pet. great job 10
