'the familiar' - #1

Faithful and hopelessly indulged companion, resting on a quilt that took me about a year to make.

  1. Is this a Golden Retriever?

    Working with the image in black and white brings out tonal contrasts in the dog's fur that might go unnoticed if the picture were in color. It might be interesting to add a little blue to the shadows and just a touch of yellow to the highlights and see if you coax just a bit more dynamic range out of it. If you do it subtly enough, most people don't consciously realize that it's no longer strictly a grayscale image.
