Guarding the Tree
by Mark Anderson

Northern California

Kobi is diligent about keeping guard of her Christmas tree. A lot of mistakes in the picture, but it was one of the first tries with my new camera. A couple of my favorite things, the Christmas decorations and my beautiful dog. Now it's time for my wife and kids to star in a Christmas portrait!

Thanks all....yes, I decided to re-do the original entry due to the bad lighting on one side of the tree. Mike, I hated to lose your original comments when I re-submitted. Happy New Year! Mark

Mark, I like how you eliminated the strong light from the window by close-cropping on Kobi's face...and having a Christmas tree background, as Helen states. Beautiful shepherd. MFC

Nice portrait of your dog! I like how the Christmas tree completely fills the background of the picture. Helen

nice job Mark, some noise from the 320 ISO but I think it makes the picture work. I hope Santa brought your BIG SWEETIE a big box of scooby snacks
