Sniper's Day out with the Doggies

SniperD · 30th June 2003

Heh heh heh....

A very good day @ Bishan Park and with the ALLPAWS Dog Carnival 2003 makes all worthwhile to make a trip in the cool evening to see the lovable canines in various costumes, sizes and breed.

just resizing done, no cropping. Taken with EOS10D w. EF17-35 f2.8L

Here's my contributions (No leeching pls

Your title say doggies, but how come I see so many familiar faces inside!??

I quite like your shots especially "Just happy to be there". Infact most of your shots are good, that close !

I dunnoe if it's me or what, but I feel that the doggies should be taken in colour because of their furs... BW doesn't really bring out a contrast in them makes them look dead... just MHO... no offence meant.

Man...

I am not sure what to think...

Better not say anything about posting dogs with their owners...

But good doggie photos and would agree with espn. Dog photos must be taken in colour so that you can see the beautiful coat of fur.

Hi Tze-Ming,

Just keep a look out for posts from Petphotographer or other Clubsnappers who likes to organise shooting outings for interested photographers.

Usually, the posts can be found in the sub-category of Photoshoots/ SEED/ GATHERINGS & EVENTS

Cheerz!

Hi Ghost,

sure thing if you are willing of coz ^.^

Erm... which one is the Shih Tzu ahh.. ? Heehee.... paisay, some Shih Tzu look like Schnauzers to me. Pardon my dog recognition ignorance

SniperD · 30th June 2003

actually, an interesting point about taking dogs with colors instead of B&W, I do agree that it's the beautiful coat of fur that makes the dog outstanding and shows its cultivation. As liken to a beautiful picture of a colourful flower given a desaturation coat...

to me, I feel a strong emotion about B&Ws, it shows more than skin deep or , in this case, fur deep. It shows the soul and spirit of the dogs protrayed here and with a sense of individualism to it.
therefore, the colours is not important to me as it's just the sirface, I'm striving to capture that "man's best friend" spirit within that mortal body of beautiful fur and wet nose.

That's just my intepretations anyway... thanks for the critiques!

Do keep them coming ^.^

SniperD · 30th June 2003

Sorry folks, I removed the DOGS & THEIR OWNERS portion... to be on the safe side

Looking Good!

Guess whose cute doggie is this? No Prizes though : P

Twin effect: Curiosity
*I particularly love this shot although it's accidental. The elements within the frame's seemed just right *

Just a stroll down the lane

The Little Hunter
* Again, among all the shots, this got to be my favourite. It's soooo small and cute and yet, this puppy's "lethal". Hahaha....

SniperD · 1st July 2003

A very beautiful Collie

In your face baby!
