    Ahhh Whippet, Lurcher or Greyhound? Lovely shot. They always look so sad. But they are usually always little buggers. I have several shots of my mothers dog in here. Take a look if you have time.

    This guy looks the part though… the lovely rich brown tones in the shot make me think of some rich swanky guy sitting in his study with his smoking jacket and a glass of whiskey and a cigar. A great capture

    This is a beautiful shot, I was going to say it looked very elegant until I read it’s a ‘he’.

  • Akira

    Thanks for the comments; he’s an old, almost always melancholic-looking but spoilt whippet.

    Great shot, I also have a Whippet and yes it’s spoilt (and a little over weight)

    They are beautiful dogs and I love mine to death.

    Gorgeous shot Akira. I have 2 whippets and currently a greyhound whom we are fostering. I have never been able to get a nice portrait of them like this. The lighting here is superb. Has he got blue eyes?

  • Akira replied

    Thank you Mark. His eyes are actually a brownish colour, but the light and the post work in this image make them appear blue.

    cool lighting akira….awsome.
    may i ask ,what is the meaning of ur beautiful name?

  • Akira replied

    Thank you sneha. It can mean many things, but typically it would mean ‘bright’, ‘intelligent’, ‘clear’ or something along those lines.
