Russel Ray Photos January Contest - Observing The Help

This week's entry was a shot I took when my then new puppy decided he needed a job.  Personally I would have given him time till he grew up a little before demanding he contribute to the household, but he was in a hurry to earn his keep.

Getting a photo of a moving target like a puppy required grabbing the camera and snapping away.  Given my druthers, I would have wished for time to get rid of the extraneous stuff in the picture.  In this case, however,  time was of the essence.  So the question is, could this picture have been saved by removing the evidence of cleaning paraphernalia?

Since I'm no pro photographer, I have more of these hiding in the recesses of my computer.  Fun contest

Ok, well that kind of help I don't need. I actually want someone who will help rinse and load the thing!

Yes, my adorable little guy was a big help with the dishes . . . and then he grew up.  Just like the kids, he no longer has an interest in working for his keep.  But I love him (and his brother and sister) just the same.

GREAT photo and your puppy looks very cute.  We too just received our puppy on Dec 27. His name is Jaxx and he is now 10 weeks old.  This photo was taken at 7 weeks.
