LOL… more dog pics… Arlo’s the one with the leg in his mouth and the regular collar… topaz is the one with the black harness and his half sister… hahaha

haha, that’s awesome. How big do those get? We want another dog. Danielle wants one with wrinkles and I want a big one… we have it narrowed to a Boxer or Bull Mastiff.

I do basic PP. Pretty much in this order… Resize, Sharpen, Levels (if needed), add border, watermark, save.

sometimes I’ll give it a little more saturation, but if you give it too much then you start to get artifacts. Nikon usually has really good colors, so I don’t have to do that as much as I did with the Canon.

Here are my camera settings 99.99% of the time:
Image sharpening: Normal
Saturation: +1
Contrast: Auto
Noise Reduction: On
White Balance: Custom
Shooting Mode: Manual

If we’re just snapping pics of the kids I’ll put it Auto so I can catch the “moments” faster. Other than that, it’s as above.

Approx 30 lbs max… Bull mastiff? They’re HUGE and they slobber like a motherfucker… Boxers are awesome but they have major heart problems… My buddies just died of a heart attack… i think it was only 4 years old…

Puggles are awsome, as long as you don’t care if other guys call you gay for owning a smaller dog… hahahaha

I don’t know if they’ll ship all the way to TX (might be a little harsh on the dog…) but this is where we got ours, and where the other owner got hers (that one in the pics just above…)

Man, those have to be the cutest puppies ever! I don’t think I’d want to put one through the misery of shipping it all the way to TX.

Here ya go James, Hope this helps.

I want a puppy :frowning:

haha, damn those are cute. Thanks!

Having some fun with my cell phone and the 10 sec. exposure.

I felt left out of the puppy snapshot page so I went and took a picture of Ziggy Ray’s new boxer.

A man and his dog… taken by a bud…

sweet saxophone!

:lol:

xtreme- Love the dog pics! Those look great.

itb’s also very sexy hahah

SAXAMAPHONE! clean shot digital, an i love the cactus shots decimal, thats what i mean about colors popping. looks like im going to have to learn how to use photoshop.

I was browsing through my albums and found these pictures. I took them to show the difference between VR and non-VR. Same exposure.


I assume VR is like IS? Very effective.

Yea… cept it seems to work a bit better… I’m not a huge canon IS fan yet…

Me either. I would never spend the extra money just for IS.

Yea… invest that $$ into a good flash…
