    I love it, partly for its originality (extreme closeup) but everything works well including Rudy's expression.

    Thank you Bruce (and Richard), but I cannot claim any accolade for originality. He does not sit still for more than a nano-second, so my approach has to be for the moment to follow him like a stalking paparazzi with single camera mounted flash and grab what I can.

    The reason for the close crop is so that the background of bed, toys, radiator etc. is not a distraction to the picture. This will change over time as he gets more used to posing for a picture.

    Having said all that I was very pleased with this first portrait. He is a real sweetie of a pup and has settled in very well with the other two dogs, and us !
