It must have been wonderful to see these cute pups!
This is a great pose with bright eyes, but I think your lens was past it's limit and it's a larger crop than can work. There is a lot of noise and softness here, especially at the large size.
Great memories, though, for sure..

Hi Richard,

High cute factor on this one! The eyes are great and I quite like how the kit is looking ahead but not quite at you (obviously something else interested it more than you did!). I would agree with Sandy that the large version is on the soft side, tho' I have no idea of how much of a crop this is...

Cheers...thanks for sharing this...

Brad

Upon viewing the larger file, I immediately suspected a large crop, due to amount of softness and noise. The pose is especially sweet and I really like how you were able to find a way to get the eye level point of view.

Very cute pup. I love the pose, the eyes and the way you can see the fur sticking out.

Very cute...too large a crop, though, I think...
