gottheshot
All tired out the both of them, Love the attention to framing with Mothers eye still in frame and love the whole body of baby in the shot with its kinda enigmatic half smile of ‘dream sleep’. Lovely colours in the dogs themselves. Great shot – really sweet on so many levels :o) Congrats on so many wins :o)
Ginny York replied
Thanks so much Paul! I had them in my room where the computer is when I took this…camera right on the table. So I saw this and had to click. It really is sweet. I’m glad you like it. :))

Comment Part 2 :o)
I love cute baby animals – they sleep where they wanna and where it is warm.
Baby has her behind – in the face of Mum but Mum doesnt care :o) Cute little back feet all curled up and front paws all curled around Mums back leg. I love the way you can see just the smallest glimpse of baby’s eyes – even they look like they are ‘smiling eyes’. Super cute – have to say !!!
Ginny York replied
Awwww. Thanks again Paul. These are such loving dogs
JamieGreen
I could just tickle that tummy.Great capture.
Ginny York replied
LOL Thanks Jamie! I could tickle it myself. :)) After the shot of course. :)
