I have a special fondness for black labs. When I caught him staring out the window, highlighting his beautiful black face and the gold light behind him, I whipped out my camera and snapped a few shots. And, if you look just right, you may see a smile.

A very wellkept specimen! He looks like a double of my one LabradorXChow puppy. If you live in SA (West Coast region) I would have loved you to have her. On the picture he surely sees something making him dream (perhaps a lady dog like him?). I like how the soft backlight on the wall doesn't interfere with the blueish shine on his fur and the reddish brown of the wood repeats in the colour of his eye. What would have been the impact on the photo if you blurred the background to hide the detail of the lampshade? With animals you seldom have time to do a lot of setting changes, I know.
