Challenge: Color on Color II (Advanced Editing VII*)
Camera: Canon EOS-20D

This is my first submission. Trying to kill two birds with one stone. I favor my pet more than anything else in the world and when I couldn't take part in the pet portrait I went for it anyways with the color on color. Just used my old desert cammies and a blanket.

Great looking lab! I've got a yellow lab and desert diggies as well. I hope you don't mind if I try to do the same thing. It just looks great.

I spend all my time with Canon(his name). I luckily have a job where i can take him with me. So with all this time together, we have an incredible bond and he's trained really well. Hopefully in the future I can share some portaits taken in nature...

Love his expression

Poor dog, but good idea.

the overall sharpness of your photo really makes it stand out

As a former Marine, I am not sure if I am upset or giddy - LOL - He/she is almost to CUTE to wear the uniform!! Semper Fi anyway!! Oh, Labs have such beautiful eyes, it would have been nice to light them a bit more. 10 non-the less!!

I don't know what you did to get him(her?) to model like that. Love all the details, especially the detials on the neck. Very well done.

His name is Buck and he is a Sargent (or s that seargent).

Beautiful dog, and the focus and detail are fabulous. I would like to reach in and pet that soft neck and those silky ears.

Aaaahhhh... He's so cute!

This seems soft and fuzzy and just a touch blurry, but since its a cute animal in people clothes i think that adds to it. The background looks like a sheet, i dont know if thats what you were going for but i find it distracting. But the compostion and values in your photo are really nice and it brings the score back up. Great subject!

Very cute!

This is a really cute picture, but the effort to make it color on color didn't really show.

Semper Fi! I am going to graduation at MCRD SD next Friday so this picture was extra special for me. I really like the colors and the dogs head and eyes are wonderfully clear. You captured a great expression as well.

It might have been a bit better if the hat were on top of his head instead of sagging behind him (or her) but I can imagine that's tough to do.

BTW Great looking lab -- I love labs with that classic blocky head. Hope he/she gets a chance to go after some ducks now and then. :)

Another one that I can see in the top 10! Lovely shot! I hope your model was rewarded! *smile*

ah i cant read the name tape to look you up in the global
wheres the other chevron?

Personally I don't like shots like this, IMHO it would have worked better with just the dog against the background
