Mate, that dog of yours is a serious poser!

Nice pics mate

It looks like you are getting to grips nicely with the camera now. What f number did you have on the first pic? Seeing as the eyes are bang in focus and the tip of his nose isn't, I would say about 2.8? About f5 - 5.6 would have given you more clarity on the nose and still blurred the background.

The pics for Nige are good too mate

Good job matey!
