Menacing
by Gary Martin

I came across several dogs during my week on Sardinia - this was just one of them. Couldn't tell for definite how (un)friendly he was but having been bitten on the abdomen earlier in the week, I wasn't taking the risk of finding out!

Just a note to say that I'm amazed at the quality of the Sigma 150 macro for pet portraits. As good as any of my L lenses in this respect.

Canon EOS 20D
1/200s f/4.0 at 150.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Nice capture. Your DOF was right on the mark. The dog looks like he is asking a question.

Fantastic detail here Gary - super doggy portrait...

Very nice portrait. Nice background.

Nice clear shot. He has a nice expression in his eye actually, and it's his undershot jaw that gives him that look.

Great shot. He's a beautiful dog. Looks more cute than menacing to me, though ;o)

Nice color and very sharp too. Looks like a great lens. He is very menacing looking . . . looks kind of like a pit bull.

Nice and clear, yes, I'd keep away too..
