Lovely looking dog. Looks very clam. :)

#1 Really good strong study, lovely expression - might benefit from a Paul-type isolation and treatment?

#2 Also a good composition, but would benefit from a correction of the WB I feel - the orange colour cast isn't to my taste

#3 The weakest of the three, mainly due to a fussy and distracting background (this is where you perhaps need to shoot wide aperture to throw the background out of focus)

Awh! What a little beauty and very nice portraits. :)

Beautiful animals, and lovely captures.

Thank you for the breakdown, very useful. For #2 yeah I know about the orange... I don't like using a flash but I haven't really mastered the whole WB thing yet. I need to practice some more.

For #3 it is a bit on the fussy side I admit, the pre b & w version was more marked actually but not as effective, I thought, as the contrast was all off, and the orange!

I should probably use a flash, I have plenty of flash options on my camera, but currently no diffuser and I didn't want to distract the subject!

I am definitely going to go away and practice with the white balance. And have another look at that second photo...

LOL.

Actually she's a tiny thing and in thoroughly rude health!

Sighthounds are addictive. Once you've lived with one.................

Lovely pics

Thank you!

Having had this little one round to stay a few times we are now considering the idea of getting one ourselves...

A calm whippet is a rare thing!!!

For calm you want a greyhound.
