Scout (enlarged)

I like this one better enlarged. I think this and the Happpy Scarecrows have a special quality-a whimsy about them. What a great Christmas card this would make-"Come in from the cold and share a warm cup of Christmas joy" or something.

enjoying a November snowstorm in PA!

this is precious :) well done Kellen.

A lovely shot, Kellen! Best regards, Ruud.

Brrrr... I'm not a lover of the cold but this is a great photo. Makes me chilly just looking at it.

No, I have changed my idea about the 4th K, You havent told us that this boy is an actor, so dogs are out of category K.

:)

Nice pose...

E.E.

As a golder Retriever owner I am surprised you could get scout to pose in the snow for this photo. Maybe its because I live in Phoenix that my Golden Tosca, goes crazy when she is in the snow. She sticks her face in the snow and tunnels. This like many of the photos in your gallery are great. I believe I have photographed some of the same places. thanks for sharing them.

to be willing to pose for a portrait in the cold. Beautiful and precious portrait of your best friend Kellen. Hope you are warm there. Warmest regards, Tanya.

comment I made on portfolio..."I LOVE this picture (Scout in the snow ~ snow falling, BEST PICTURE EVER ~I realized I didn't explain what picture it was). It is one of my favorite pictures you have done as it is so simple yet so inviting. You almost want to go hug poor scout as he sits there almost as if he is on "watch" not unlike a part of a JOB he has to do. The way the snowflakes are hanging off his face is something you could not script. Perfect timing, perfect color, perfect everything! 7/7 (only wish I could have rated it when it came out) ~ micki"

WHY?Because when your daughter shows THIS picture to her daughter 20 years from now THIS picture is the one SHE is going to keep close to her heart and remember the most saying this was MY SCOUT! AND this is why we take pictures! BINGO! HA! ~ TADA... not all this silly stuff we do. We take pictures to have and to hold dear to our heart like the one of your daughter with the hat. This picture captures YOUR SCOUT like not other picture I have seen. Just like one of the first pictures I posted of my silly dog on MY bed (where she is NOT supposed to be. :) ~ I love it ~ and now I have to go redo my makeup ~ thank you for all your support, you have been a true friend on photo.net! You have made it real for me and kept me grounded! ~ micki
