timkeller 0 Posted November 12, 2008 The red sweatshirt and the boy's expression really make this one pop. The colors of the grasses (and cornstalks, in background?) are a lovely counterpoint: even the sky cooperates with that color scheme. Your usual sharp focus looks almost 3D around the boy's head. I like the whole thing. (Back in Texas, where I once lived, they'd say whole thang.) Link to comment
tonmestrom 4 Posted November 12, 2008 yes, this works. And of course it had to be a red jacket amongst those otherwise desaturated colours. Black lab btw? Link to comment
Matt Laur 2,201 Posted November 12, 2008 That is SO not a black lab. That's a 14-week-old Swiss Mountain Dog (a großes Kind if ever there was one). He and his boy were hanging out at the edge of a farm field where some of my familiar bird dog training was happening. Handlers and dogs were headed into the field, and this pair were hustling out of gunning range so that the Swissie pup wouldn't have to contend with the sound of the shotguns at such a tender age.

tonmestrom 4 Posted December 2, 2008 forgive me but from where I'm sitting it could just as well have been. But of course having two of them it was in the front of my mind as well ;-))) Link to comment
