We took these pics this morning for Duke's ILP/PAL application. I think I
know which two (one full front, one full side) I want to send, but I
wouldn't mind getting a few more opinions.

My picks are 13 and 7. Duke is a very handsome boy with an appealing
expression (*love* the tongue!).

I like Side 003 - it's the one in which he's squarest (and
handsomest, but that's another matter). I don't know about
the full front one, though.

I really like the first picture the best. I like the ones where he is
looking straight into the camera. He's a beautiful boy.

I like this one best, with a happy smile and big wide tongue:

I also like this, but the background is ugly:

The side shots show much more of his sleek build, and this one has the most
natural background, although the fence detracts from it:

I'm glad I was able to capture these smiling dogs with a natural
background:

But this picture of Lucky with her head turned just enough, taken by
Bonnie, is a real work of art:

Duke is a beautiful dog, and he looks happy, with good body language. No
dreaded C-shape here!

i was trying the other day to get a front ilp shot of mushroom, and
dang it's not easy! i've had a reasonable side one for ages, but
front? not so much.

I've heard that the AKC is actually pretty lax about
granting them, although I guess having a fabulous dog
demands a fabulous photograph.

Are you applying for the ILP for competition?

Side - 007: Duke, Duke Healey. 008 is very good, but doesn't
show his tail. Front, 012 or 013.

FWIW, I'm just picking those I like. I know nothing, just that
a well-structured tongue is important.

Amen! Duke has a very Elliott-like joie de tongue. I find it
enchanting.
