Little Luna

Sitting still for a change.

Photographing Luna is no easy task.  As soon as the thought even crosses your mind that you should snap a picture of her, she inevitably moves.  It is like she wants no proof of her cute or silly behavior.  This is probably how most dogs behave, but I have been really spoiled with the boys.  Both of them love to mug for the camera and you can stick the camera right in their face and they will not budge.  I can hover, lean, poke and pry and they just ignore me.  Which makes it really easy to photograph them.

Luna also has a super dark face which turns out too dark in lots of photographs.  I almost always have to lighten her photographs so that you can see the detail in her face.

All things considered, though, she has improved a lot since we first adopted her.  When we first brought her home, it took a couple of months for me to get a half way decent shot of her.

She is such a sweetie and I try so hard to capture that, but most of the time she just comes out looking like one big blur.
