This is Muggs the Pug, or better known in our house as Mugsly the Pugsly. He was so cute and fun last night, (it seemed at times that he was posing for me) and I couldn’t choose just one photo to post, so here’s two.

For both photos – focal point 31, f/4.6, exposure 4, shutter 1/180.  I used the in camera flash on these photos as they were taken at night with only a couple house lights on, and it was too dark without the flash. I also did some minor adjusting in Photoshop to sharpen the images and clear up some of the red in his eyes.

I feel pretty good about these photos and feel like I made a teeny bit of progress in the way of when to use a flash and the quality of photo I’ll get when using it at different distances.

As always, suggestions and comments are encouraged, as I have much to learn.

See you on the other side of the lens.
