Graham took this photo at our dog training club. The storyline is the little boys mother died and he is praying that his Daddy is OK.
I added a digital background then changed to Greyscale to match the tones. ~Pat

Oh, Pat! I already had a boo-boo face just looking at the image, then after reading your description, I almost cried!! #6695894Jacqualyn A. Volker November 02, 2008
Very nicely done Pat! So sad but great job! #6696611Debbie E. Payne November 02, 2008
Me, too! It is SO good to see you are back with us again! I love your animal images and have missed them. This shot is just excellent because it reminds us how important pets are to our mental well-being and how they are truly our "best friends". #6696612Irene Colling November 02, 2008

Wow, the emotion pulls right through this image...job well done!) #6704075Aimee C. Eisaman November 04, 2008
I immediately felt the sadness of this shot as soon as I looked at it! I wondered what could make the boy look so terribly forelorn. After reading your description I understood! An amazingly powerful image Pat and you have presented it in a beautiful form! So glad you have you back with us in the Phellos club so we can see fantastic, touching images such as this one! #6706062Graham Robards November 06, 2008
Hi everyone, I was wondering Aimee why the little boy looked so forlorn.Graham took this shot at dog training, the little boy was there with his parents yet he looked so lonely with his puppy.
Thank you everyone for stopping by and leaving a comment. I really appreciate your kind words!
