Portrait Fail

I wish I knew how to use all the fancy-schmancy controls on my camera. Thankfully the camera comes with a few idiot proof settings or I would be doomed - but I still can't seem to get the settings correct for taking pictures inside.

The dogs are beginning to hate the snowy & rainy days. This week was pretty dreary and Crazy Lady decided to torture them with the camera. Normally when the camera comes out, Beth hides behind the couch, Ranger puffs up like a parrot and Bonnie only has eyes for the string cheese I bribe them with.

Beth didn't bolt from the room like she did during the Border Collie Fashion Show. However she still managed to look like she was being tortured. I think the lure of string cheese overwhelmed her disdain for the camera.



This is the "We Are Abused" Family Portrait Series







I love this one - Ranger looks so... debonair. I could almost see him wearing as smoking jacket posing in a library. Bonnie looks hungry for the cheese I had in my hand.



Bonnie's pretty 'feed me more cheese' pose.



We were getting a little better with this shot (but the lighting still bites). Bonnie looks happy, Ranger is stuck in his Mr Serious pose, and Beth, is ...uhh..well, being Beth.



This one is my favorite - I just wish the lighting was better (or I knew what I was doing).



Next time I think I need to break out some nice Spring Fashions for the dogs to model. How about EASTER HATS!

For that I will have to whip out the beef jerkey & peel Beth off the ceiling.
