Morgan

While visiting family members today, I was able to get out and photograph Morgan for his upcoming show at the Newfoundland Specialty.  Jenny showed him this Winter and he ended up as one of the top 20 Newfoundland dogs in the United States. I really like the pose which says big, but gentle.  I pushed the exposure to the right and was able to pull out lots of detail while adjusting the curves in LR.  Finally, I tweaked down the shadows and highlights with luminosity masks and bumped up the contrast slightly. K5 IIs (1/1000. sec at f8, ISO 500)...........................Jim

It looks like you could take a bath with that tongue. Great looking dog!
