OMGosh look at those eyes!!! What a beautiful soul Jean... perfect portrait of a true friend... there is just nothing like the love of a dog... #8471769Jean-Pierre Ducondi March 22, 2010
This is a great portrait Jean. Lighting and composition are on the dot.Jean Lechleiter March 22, 2010
Thank you all for your wonderful comments, they are so appreciated.JP - you were one of my first encouragers, your comments help me believe in myself. Thanks a million!
Ladies, I'm so glad to share this with you. Connelly is my son, Kevin's dog. He is a wonderfully patient dog and I can see that his breed would make a great guide dog, Christine.
The colouring of the wall, and the lighting were all I had to work with as he was lying on his bed - so lucky for me!
Sorry I'm not around much - still have neck and headache problems.
Kevin is doing quite well and waiting for another scan - will keep you informed.
JEAN. #8473773
