A few cuties from class

Hi Everyone,
I hope you are all doing well and staying healthy. I'm still working at my job, but alone, and miss my co-workers, so thought I would take a break and post a few of the students pups that I get to practice my photography on from our obedience classes that Penny and I take. No more classes until further notice, so that will probably drive me a bit crazy (as Penny and I LOVE taking classes) but better safe than sorry. I pray that we can all get thru this virus without more loss of life, and thought we needed a bit of happiness today so here are a few of my classmates dogs (and of course Penny) to brighten up our day! Stay safe everyone!
(and still struggling with those strobe lights-sometimes it works out, and then sometimes, not so much)
Enjoy-Debbie

I really like all of these, but was particularly taken with Nadia. Just the tilt of her head.

Thanks so much NMGal ♥ They are all just the best dogs to be around, but Nadia is so graceful and elegant and yes, she does have a wonderful head tilt. She is full of energy and loves life ♥ ♥

Donna, you are way to kind. I'm no expert by any means, more a happy hobbyist who truly loves what I do, but thank you, thank you so much! ♥

Nice photos. Would you share your lighting setup?
Hi Kelso, I'm going to be really honest here, I do a lot of playing with getting them right. No classes taken for lighting and just bare minimum with learning my camera, but I enjoy experimenting very much. I take photos for the classes at the Canine School where my dogs and I attend and was given an area to take photos, which is actually a very small storage closet. I started off with continuous lighting and then moved to DigiBees (800 watts) by Paul Buff. I had a friend come in, show me how to hook them up and started playing. When we are allowed back, I can take a photo to show you the set up, but I have a small platform and my lights are in front of me, one on each side pointed at the dog. I'm sure there is probably a better way, but with the limited space I have, I have to do it this way. I'm kneeling down in between the lights and don't have big soft boxes on them as their just isn't the room for it. This probably won't help you much and for that I apologize.
