The Greatest Dane

This is a discussion on The Greatest Dane within the Animals (mammals, birds, insects etc.) forums, part of the Show your photo (Color) - Landscape & Nature (flowers, mountains, storms etc.) category; I was asked to shoot off some shots and produce a sort of montage for a friend of mine....

    I do like that. Not really a doggy guy but the way you have blended them is very good.

    I like this, but can't help feel the dogs need to be more distinct from the background. As big as they are, they get sort of lost.

    Hi Wicked Dark,
    Thank you for the very valid comments.
    Well the original montage the dogs did pop a little bit more but it seemed to unattached from the image rather than it sort of working together.
    Ill post the other montage with the different background.
    I would very much appreciate your comments, still on a learning curve here lol

    maybe instead of a different background you could lower the contrast of the one you have and up the contrast of the dogs themselves. make sense?

    Nice work! The background really suits the dogs.
