paw

This is Zarco my dog well at least his paw is, he is so difficult to take a photo off it took me an hour for him to relax and lay down since he is a very hiped up dog, but I got a good shot of his paw I think.
Zarco is a rescued dog and very happy to be with us for the past 2 years.

    Question, If he is so hyper how did you manage to get it against a black bg. If I set anything around my dog she would never settle down where I need her. lol

  • Little Rascals... replied

    I am wondering if I should tell you this easy trick after the Challenge….just kidding. the background is a carpet and a chair. I just went into Levels to darken the background and lighten his paw and than took the darkining brush to get rid of the background…very simple..he was finally laying on the floor right infront of me

    Hallo Susanne,
    dies ist so schön! Sehr stimmungsvoll und sanft. Mein Hund (Borador – Mix aus Border Collie und Labrador) ist auch immer so hippelig, dass ich kaum ein Bild hinbekomme. Der Bildaufbau hier ist sehr gut gelungen, es sind viele Details in der Pfote und im Fell sichtbar.
    Thanks for sharing und liebe Grüße in die Staaten, Britta :-)

  • Little Rascals... replied

    Vielen Dank Britta!, Borador-hab ich ja noch nie gehoert, ich glaub ich bin schon zu lange weg von zuhause. Zarco ist sehr hippelig 24/7
    vielen dank das du vorbei geschausst hast.

  • Alina Hahn

    Alina Hahn

    Great black and white! I see that you explained how you made the background black and I wanted to thank you for the tip. I love black backgrounds but don’t use any kind of photo editing software. This makes me interested in possibly using it one day.

  • Little Rascals... replied

    Thanks so much Alina! Anytime you have a question let me know, if I know it I will let you know.

  • Tama Blough

    Tama Blough

  • EarthGipsy

    EarthGipsy

    I love this image!

  • Little Rascals... replied

    Cool Sonia, I will send Zarco right over and you can see all of his 4 paws, lol. Thanks so much

  • tserio

    tserio

    This is wonderful. I just love their little pads. Soft looking hair.

  • Little Rascals... replied

    Thanks so much tserio it actually is Hair, Zarco is a Portuguese Waterdog and they have hair instead of fur, it does not stop growing so he needs regular grooming.

  • EarthGipsy

    EarthGipsy

    Yes please, those paws will love my beach!

  • Little Rascals... replied

    Don’t think so Sonia, my so called Waterdog that has web feet is scared of water, lol

  • tserio

    tserio

    I wanted to ask you a question. What kind of dog has fur? I always thought that all dogs have hair.

  • Little Rascals... replied

    No pretty much they all have Fur only a few have Hair, meaning they Anti Allergenic which is good for alot of people with Allergies, also they do not shed which I love, Labradoodles have Hair also. If you want to know which dogs have Hair just type it in the address bar, but there are only a few, I never ever see a hair which is awesome.

  • tserio

    tserio

    Well, I guess I learned something. I have two shih tzu so I looked it up because I have to trim their hair about once every three weeks. They have an underlayer of fur but also hair. Very interesting, I thought all dogs had hair. I guess that’s why they don’t shed. Thanks. Tara

  • Little Rascals... replied

    I am glad you looked it up tserio, most dogs have fur and than they shed. Correct dogs with hair don’t shed which is good for alot of people with allergies, so it is always good to look it up. The President chose a Portuguese Waterdog for that reason, allergies and shedding but he has no idea how hyper they are, lol…well he will have fun.
