Obiwan - blue sharpei
I was out this evening with my dogs, trying to test out my new 200-500 lens in low light conditions as was requested by one of the members. Its nearly impossible to approach small birds with these dogs as they seem to know where I am looking and always get there first frightening them off
In the end before it got too dark I decided to use one of my dogs as a subject and think of him as something i would post in the Wildlife forum in the future!
Here is my male sharpei named Obiwan Kenobi. Although never taught he is an amazing scent dog and will also herd cattle.
Nikon D800e
Nikkor 200-500 @ 500mm
1/125
f5.6
ISO 5000
Cropped slightly for composition. Applied NR on background
I focused on the nose thinking at that distance i would get the rest of the head in focus but the eyes are slightly OOF when zoomed right in at 100% (user error). I am unsure if the fur would have had more detail with a higher SS or if it is also behind the focal plane
I will post a pic of the female soon
