Bailey the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever

This is Bailey, an 8 week old Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. I

used infrared film to capture his looks and this made him look way

older beyond his years. What do you think ?

Overexposed, too grainy

This Rohan Philips seems to be the most pessimistic person in the forums around here. I don't think he's ever said a good word about anyone's pictures, and just look at his gallery !

The most boring motif's ever !

 

However, I would like you other folks here to comment on this shot for what it depicts. It was meant to be blurry and weird, some people just cannot see anything artistic in anything.

How disappointing.

 

 

I like it. It's different and interesting. I like the water on the mouth, like he just got through drinking. Good job!

I like the Infra effect, and the graininess adds to the appeal.

I like the puppy's face and the dark area below it. However, I have to agree that it is a little too overexposed to the point where the puppy's front legs look a little flat and strange. A broader tonal range would have made this such a great shot. I wonder if cropping a little off the sides may help.

 

As for the graininess, it doesn't really bother me in this case.

Thanks a million for the nice and constructive comments, I appreciate all of them.

I do realise this is a funky shot and not top class but I tried to create something different and I think this is different, if nothing else ! LOL

But many thanks again !
