Faithful

ohh :) i love it!

Ooooh, I’m in love. Great capture Jack

The light really makes this. Good work.

Oh Jack … .wonderful photo!! Yes, the lighting is awesome!! What a gorgeous dog :) :)

Beutifully captivating shot Jack.

I wonder if it is also a heroic dog?

Someones got a good mate. Beautifully captured Jack.

I love his crossed paws ! so cute , is the lighting effect natural or photoshopped ? love it either way !

Thanks for all the lovely feedback – it’s very encouraging.
The lighting is quite natural. I shot this on the shed floor, the light coming from one small window on an overcast day. The black background has been homogenized and blended with PS and but that’s about all :-))

What a totally engaging shot.

great photo!!

The lighting is beautiful. The boots are loaded with meaning, and you’ve chosen an appropriate title. I agree with Tamarama72 about the crossed paws; very endearing. Lovely photo, Jack.

A beautiful dog and he’s sitting so nicely too!! Your boots need a clean!!!

Thanks again! The crossed paws are his own doing – no coercion involved! :-)
@goergiegirl, the boots are too useful for still lifes to risk cleaning them :p

he’s so beautiful! Makes my heart melt. great expression.

That is seriously gorgeous Jack, what a lovely looking dog. That pose is priceless and I love the addition of the boots, fab light…......love it:)

What is it about dogs and old boots? I do understand!!
the difference is that you have a knack with colour, lovely light and sense of drama.
and you get to some great locations.
I like your work a lot!

awww….. a short haired border collie – very cute !
nicely composed and lit photograph too.

What a beautiful image. The faithful dog sitting next to his own pair of shoes. haha
A classic mate. nice work.

This is just beautiful. Dogs are my weak spot and this is just beautifully posed and the lighting is lovely.

i do love this shot, just thought i’d say so again..

Thank you all again for your comments. Of course of beautiful and cooperative subject makes the task a little easier! :))
