  • Thank you so much for your Mark of Excellence for this photo, Ilona! I am Coralie Duda from Glauburg near Frankfurt/ Germany. I took it on a very warm summer evening when the light already was down. The little puppy Eve didn't want to stay alone in front of the camera, so we tried something different. The photo was taken with my Canon EOS 5D Mark iii and the Canon 70-200mm f2.8 IS ii.

  • This is such a fun and simple image ... the conversion to black and white allows this white dog to stand out from the grassy landscape. Nicely done! ~illona
