Waiting for the inevitable

I was out on our back deck looking for birds when Sahraa suddenly got up and seemed to be waiting for the inevitable, i.e., that I would take a picture of her, so I gladly accommodated her.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly
unsharp.

A wonderful and expressive pose with stellar eye contact. I like the play of light and shadow in this portrait. She is really a beautiful dog. VV

It looks like she's trying to figure you out.
Julie Oldfield20-Apr-2021 00:59
She seems like she is looking forward to being a model. V

Love the shadow play on her head. V

Beautiful sharp portrait, love the expression.

She looks reluctant to have her photo taken....wonderful light and pose....V

Finally - she's succumbed:)

She is quite the pretty dog.

Awww, very charming image of her...She knows you well!

You should get her one of those button pads so she can tell you exactly what she wants to do.

I wonder what she is thinking the camera is? After all this time, she is still not relaxed about her role as model.

She seems resigned to getting her portrait done. Too bad she can’t see the result and know how good she looks.

What a change from a couple years ago!!!!!!!!
Nick Paoni18-Apr-2021 19:31
And what an interesting pose she gave you!

Sahraa is so cute and lovely. V.
Tom Munson18-Apr-2021 16:56
Sweet capture, even though she does not look happy.
Kevin D Warren18-Apr-2021 16:47
I guess she figured she might as well get it over with! :-)
Don Mottershead18-Apr-2021 16:37
She looks like she just came up with a plan. When you are not looking she's going to bury the Z7 in the flower bed.

Oops, I meant, I would NOT be able to resist her
Raymond18-Apr-2021 16:35
I sure would be able to resist her
