I Want To Be Alone

I Want To Be Alone
Henry: (pout)

Zachary, what's up with Henry?

I Want To Be Alone
Zachary: "We want to be alone."

We?

Good grief - what did I do this time?

Daily Dog Challenge 1328. "I Want To Be Alone"


Behind The Scenes


Yes - the shot below is the same shot as the one up top minus the extra cloning to make myself disappear...

Behind the Scenes
WE want to be alone?


Had the camera back a bit farther than usual and caught myself in the shot.

For reference, my "studio" (i.e. Kitchen) has about 8' of floor space across this end, putting Henry's rump ~18" from the fridge on the left and my rump leaning up against the cabinets on the right.

I'm curled up like a praying mantis to avoid throwing any shadows, as the flash is right in front of me.

In fact, the tip of the leg of the flashes tripod was cloned out of the lower right corner of this image.

Why?

Because I can. :)

Why am I not in the other shots?

Because I was standing for those and thus took up less floor space.

And because I cloned out any bits of myself that DID appear.

And then vignetted the heck out the results to hide the fact the flooring didn't match in the cloned area.

So there.

Great photos. But a Golden Retriever wanting to be alone is just too sad.
