smile sweep

For the dog lovers amongst you this is sweep my daughter's 15 year old border collie, she is a fantastic family pet although getting on in years she still has plenty of character. Since a pup she would "Smile" on command. I thought i had lost the shot as i resized it too small but by pure fluke i hadn't cleared my memory card and there it was.
Just a snapshot i thought you might like to see.

If thats a "Smile" she would make a superb guard dog!!!!!!!!!!

Good clarity Sue - making progress real fine!

In her younger days she used to bark at strangers if they were on her territory but now she is quite glad of the company i think, thanks for comments John. ~Sue.

That "smile" made me laugh !!!! Great capture,,,,,,,

Whats good about this is her coat is not blown out ,easy to do with that colour - the definition is fine - well done Sue , you're getting the hang of that camera ~ John

Thanks Kathy i'm glad it made you laugh she used to chase her own tail but a bit too old now i think !!!!!!!!

John i am taking your advice and trying out differant settings and then using Paintshop pro to play with them thanh you for your kind words.

smile on command - thats something!! love it!

love it!! i have a similar one of Caley, but it was a smile command, she had been eating malt extract and her teeth were stuck temporarily very funny though a suggestion for next time you want a shot of her doing this is get down to her level and get some eye contact, but this is great and brought a smile to my chops too

'Yes i did brush my teeth, LOOK.'
