Lookin' for love.

This is a superb portrait of this gorgeous little girl! My daughter wants this one already so you've done your job superbly ;-) Unfortunately we're in Canada so adopting this one would be a challenge.

All the best,
Neil

I appreciate you kind comments. I only began shooting shelter animals as a volunteer a few weeks ago so there's a lot I have to learn because it's not your typical assignment. These animals are so stressed out, and so excited to be out of their cages and have contact with caring humans, that you have to be well prepared to catch whatever pose they give you because you're almost always shooting at a moving target. I do have an agenda with what I'm doing. There are so many exceptional photographers in the Photo.Net membership, I'd really like to motivate others like me, animal lovers who have the time and are motivated to volunteer their skills to their local shelters. I've learned that most adoptions start with visits to shelter web sites, and typically most photos of the animals are snapshots in excercise yards looking down on them, so better photos will go a long way to give these wonderful creatures the loving home they yearn for. Sorry, I seem to have gotten carried away. But not sorry at the same time. Regards, Bill

Bill: Congratulations on a great photo and a great cause. She's a cutie captured by a talented photographer.

Regards, John

Excellent and well done!!

This is the look that everyone who works with shelter animals sees.  It's a look and a photograph that is truly worth a thousand words.

Highest compliments to you for the work you are doing.
