Trying for a good white background

...and experimenting with ways to light it. Click on "next" to see the setup for this shot. (He is turning away from the Westcott Apollo Softbox which measures by 50 x 50". It terrifies him!)

I think this is excellent too! Nice exposure between the lights and the darks and just a hint of the shadows under the paws. He may have turned away in fear but I really like the pose.

Yes...Tammy...there was editing on the background. I had to lighten the bottom.

Hey that's getting there, Isabel!

Really nice white background, Isabel. No editing to the background at all, right? I guess it's the way Ricky is looking to the side, which causes him not to have much of a catchlight in his eye, I think I'd like to see a little more of a catchlight, JMO. But I really love the detail you've gotten in the fur. Ricky is such a cute little dog.
