Happy in Horsetails

Another one of Deva (the Great Pyranees) when she was a small puppy.  She was right at home out in the wild from the day we got her. It was taken later in the evening when the low light was filtering through the taller brush.  The hints of red under her fur is a harness showing through.

Another old photo taken with my 5 mpxl Sony DSC-F707.  ISO-100, f/4.5, 1/160 hand held.

Deva looks right at home in the brush, and it provides an attractive setting for this portrait.  The Detail View is awesome!

Deva is a beautiful dog.  The surrounding greenery really shows off the white coat.  Nice setting.

Everything looks fuzzy here, Gary, it's like her hair is mimicking the texture of the horsetails.  Love the brilliant greens in the foliage and how they contrast with her white.

Hi Gary,

Nice comp and the colors are rich but not overly saturated.  I like the whites and details in Deva's fur.  She's a nice looking mega-pup......................Jim
