Probably one of my favorite images of our Beagle taken on the boardwalk at Rogerstown Estuary North County Dublin. He looks calm but was pausing very briefly to see why I wasn't keeping up with him :-)

He's definitely got a look that says "what ARE you doing?" While I might prefer a touch more room an the left side of the frame, there is some really sweet light in this one Tony - and it shows off the beagle nicely. :cool:

I've had many dogs over the years, but never a beagle.. Although I've always admired them from afar :smile:
Nice alert pose with great detail & light Tony :toast:

Nice looking beagle and an excellent shot, Tony! The lighting on the dog is excellent and puts the emphasis on the eyes which is always a good thing.

Tony, I'll just rework your opening statement for my comment: "Probably one of my favourite images of ANY beagle..." :cool:

Absolutely fantastic image here, Tony. The comp is top-notch and the setting just fantastic, but it's his pose that puts it over the top. Great decisions in the field and at the computer to craft a masterpiece!
