LOL! Are you sure - remember, we've all seen you armed and dangerous! Love those eyebrows - nice one, Carolyn! #188267Carolyn M. Fletcher November 14, 2004
Pretty sure. LOL #908539Wally Orlowsky November 14, 2004
Fantastic portrait with great lighting, Carolyn ... he looks like he could be sleuthing for Scotland Yard. #908543Carolyn M. Fletcher November 14, 2004
I don't think he was much of a sleuth. He wouldn't even get out of the car. #908545S J November 14, 2004
Terrific portrait and lighting! #908548Joy Brown November 14, 2004
GREAT dog portrait, Carolyn - perfect in black and white! #908565Carolyn M. Fletcher November 14, 2004
Thanks Sanjay and Joy. I had no choice with the black and white. I shot this inside of a blue car and he turned out quite blue. This was the only thing I could think of to get the blue out. #908580Kathleen Clemons November 14, 2004
He looks like he's posing! Nice work! #908586Allan L. Whitehead November 14, 2004
LOL, great capture, 'shot' and presentation Carolyn, as a;ways. I love the composition, the crop and the b&w works exquisitely here. Very well done, my dear friend - your good friend, Allan #908596Colleen Braun November 14, 2004
great tones and you have captured THE LOOK... #908597Carolyn M. Fletcher November 14, 2004
Thanks Kath, Allan and Colleen. He was staring at "his" people. #908606Amy N. Cappelli November 14, 2004

What an intense look on his face--great portrait! #908697Claudia Kuhn November 14, 2004
Wonderful portrait Carolyn, he looks like a gentleman, staring into the past, or reflecting on it. #908702Carolyn M. Fletcher November 14, 2004
Thanks Amy, Paul, Bill, Janet, Rob and Claudia. He was probably wondering why Bob wouldn't sell any of his stuff. LOL #908707Patricia A. Kuniega November 14, 2004
You captured his air of refinement in this great doggie portrait! B&W was the perfect choice, and I love those eyebrows too! #908736Carolyn M. Fletcher November 14, 2004

Thanks a lot Gloria! Much appreciated! #908991Murry Grigsby November 14, 2004
Did he have a magnet on his bottom? :0) Or are you too young to remember the little black and white scotties with magnets?? Great portrait Carolyn! The light, textures and clarity are super!! #909013Kelly Abernathy November 14, 2004
Terrific Carolyn! What a cutie! -K #909105Carolyn M. Fletcher November 14, 2004
Thanks Kelly and Murry..Of COURSE I remember the magnets. I even used to have some. Don't know what ever happened to them. #909116Monika Sapek November 14, 2004
A very nice photo, Carolyn! I really like those a little sad eyes and nose like a button in the furry dog’s face. It looks so nice in black and white. He reminds me a bit about my old dog, a giant schnauzer…Carolyn M. Fletcher November 14, 2004
Thanks Monika! I don't know what kind he is, I think a Scottish Terrier. He was about 15 inches high, I'm guessing. #909209Donna J. Taff November 14, 2004
Beautiful portrait of a beautiful dog, Carolyn!!!!!! I thought you gave that gun back? #909277Carolyn M. Fletcher November 14, 2004

what kind of lighting did you use with this shot? the scotty in my gallery came out looking like a black blob.. #1632328Carolyn M. Fletcher July 24, 2005
This was shot outdoors on a sunny day. The dog was in a blue pickup truck and he came out quite bluish, so I changed him to black and white. #1632378Stephen Zacker August 22, 2005
