November 5, 2009 - Day 161

I had a real hard time today deciding on the shot. What made it hard it really hard is they are the exact same shot, just one in color and one in sepia. I think they both have positive aspects. In the end, I did go with the sepia one, but I included both here for your enjoyment...

I like the color one because you can see that she's laying in the sun, but everything just looks SO good in sepia... Tough call, both are great though, not only because you're a great photographer but because she's such a cute, good girl who can get remarkably comfortable on her bed with her bunny.

I like the sepia one better. it evens out the light better that way. Nice shot.

Oh, sweet! That is one pretty dog... you probably couldn't take a bad picture of her :-)

I love them both. They each say something different. She is a good girl and does love her bunny so much.

Both are great shots; I am hard pressed to decide which I like better, so I will mention the merits of each.

The color shot features deeper shadows and warm lighting effects. As Jess pointed out, you can tell that Leia is lying in the sun. The shades of her fur are richer in the color shot, whereas some of this depth is lost in the sepia-toned photo.

On the other hand, the sepia shot is simply, for lack of a better word, cooler. The color photo mirrors reality, whereas the sepia photo looks like it could be the cover of a coffee table book of dog photos. It's a very classy shot.

The sepia version is my favorite of the two, it would look so good in a frame.
