Uh oh, the camera again

Uh oh, the camera again

I'm so desperate to get pictures of Sahraa, but she simply won't cooperate. On this day she ran off in different directions as soon as she saw the camera. I can't even imagine what caused this phobia during her life in Kuwait.

Nikon D700 ,Nikkor AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED
1/800s f/2.8 at 70.0mm iso2500 full exif

other sizes: small medium original

I love when you get the whites of their eyes! It just makes them look all the cuter! Rook, my German short-haired pointer, was very camera shy but instead of running away he would come at me which made shooting him very difficult. Maybe they see their reflection in the lens and it spooks them???

What I was about to say, before the iPad so rudely interrupted me, was that I love every picture you take of this pretty girl! She looks like such a sweetheart.

Have you tried to use hand phone instead of the camera? Helen
I am able to see the contrast of her expressions between her video, other cute photographs and this, but she's still very lovely.
