[Leica] Mark's week 23 - Ferocious Big Girl's Blouse

[mark at whitedogs.co.uk (Mark Pope)]

We went to the Southern Counties dog show in Newbury last week to start 
looking for a breeder for a new Samoyed puppy.
After spending the morning at the Sammy show ring, we went for a wander 
around the other tents and encountered this Dobermann puppy.
Dobermanns are, in my view somewhat maligned and this chap was a great 
big softie - he made a huge din when his mum was out of sight for just a 
few moments!  Like I said in the title - a big girl's blouse!

I used the Canon 20D rather than a Leica this week, as I needed to use a 
long zoom lens to get pictures of the dogs that we were interested in.  
This was taken with the 17-40mm L series lens - a lens that's crying out 
for a full-frame sensor I feel.

He did well too - getting best in group.  I think he has an excellent 
show career ahead of him!

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the shot and as usual, c&c are welcome.

Cheers

Mark
