My son works in a vet and had the honor of helping mending this little thing up after it was hit by a car, and left in the median to die. Nice older gentleman brought her in and is paying all the bills and if he doesn't take her, looks like we have her.
New to photography, learning a lot, appreciate what I'm getting from all of you.

Cellphone shot...My son made the wheelchair for her.

Awww, what a little sweetie and thank you for taking care of her and maybe giving her a new home. Great work by your son on the chair for her. So wonderful of you :) And welcome by the way. This is a great place to learn, you'll really like it here.

These are fantastic shots. Now lets see. You're new to photography? These images were taken with a Canon 60D a 300mm lens and shot in manual mode. All the camera settings are spot on, producing images with great saturation, in focus (at least the second one) and wonderful PP, so my question is, just how NEW are you to photography?

Joe, that's funny! Let me clarify a bit, and I'll start by saying I'm lucky. Thanks, really for the complement.
My son took the first one on his cellphone at the vets's so we could see how 'Little Bitty' did with it.
I got my camera, the 60D last fall, and have read and re-read the book, learn tons from this site and folks like you, bought a few lens besides the kit 18-135.
I'm lucky enough to be friends with professional wedding photographer who will let me use his "L" lens - and this one was his 28-300.
But it's practice, practice, and practice. I'm attempting to learn to shoot in everything except automatic...just refuse to do that so I'm forced to learn how everything relates. Believe me, the delete button is my friend.
And then I'm learning Lightroom to edit the pics a bit.
Thanks again, I really appreciate that!

Then congratulations, you've put your homework to good use.
IMHO you're doing everything right. That's the approach to take and it will pay off handsomely for you. Stick with it and I'll be the first to look in on your posts.

mrova, what a beautiful little pup! He's precious! Thank you for caring! I just can't understand people who hit animals (or even people sometimes!!) and don't stop to help them!!!
