Snow Dog

I just could not resist posting this image of my dog in the snow! He is a rescue dog and we believe he was given up because his owner was deployed to the Middle East. He is bits and pieces of German Shepherd, Australian Shepherd and who knows what. Mostly he is "Good Dog" and a real people-lover. He is also my physical trainer and makes sure I go for a good walk/run every day!

I used Topaz clean.

Great image Nancy. What a happy camper. I love dogs and take a lot of pictures of my 3 Golden Retrievers (we just got a 8 weeks old puppy).

You can see the joy in that face...nice effects

Glad you posted this. Great portrait! Love the processing you did--draws my attention directly to the face, snow, tongue, forehead. The white bg works beautifully to focus attention of the dog. Love the look of a happy dog. I know what you mean about a dog being a physical trainer. Beautiful portrait.

Yep, that's one happy pup! Nice processing that really gives the feeling of a snowy fun filled day.

What a joyful dog, Nancy. He looks like he's fun to be with. I love the processing.:S3:

Love the pup and your processing, Nancy. I had an Australian Shepherd buddy for many years and he loved nothing more than diving his head into snowbanks. Thanks for sharing. :S3:

Thanks all! Charley is indeed a happy boy! He has so much hair that he just loves these cold days.

Nancy, I love it! Very cute with the snow. Nice job with the filtering!

He's a beautiful happy-looking dog! Very nicely processed. I love the snow on his head.

This one is excellent, Nancy! Love the snow on the head and those eyes! Beautiful effect...nicely processed.

Woof!
