March 2012 - Pets.ca photo challenge - Pets looking straight into the camera

Hi members!

Anyone have any ideas for March's photo theme?

I'll just throw something out but feel free to suggest something else and the theme with the most support by tomorrow becomes this month's challenge theme.

What about pets looking straight into the camera?

Thx!

That's an easy one!!

How about 'Just Tails'. Based on that..'guess the breed'...

Benmax that sounds like fun!!!! Guess the breed by the tail.......

Only problem is, most of us already know what breeds members have...and a lot of members have mixed breeds...

UNBELIEVABLE, another month has past and we have entered a new one...time is flying by too quickly. Just a face/head shot? This sounds good to me.

I like the idea of looking straight into the camera. A full frontal stare-down!

Looks like looking into the camera has the most support so it is this month's challenge. thx all - merging suggestion posts now.

Ok members,

The theme this month is pets looking straight into the camera.

For feisty pets what sometimes helps is having someone else hold some food just above the lens while you take the picture. (it works with my cats anyway - lol)

Ok then who will post first?

Christmas 2011`

In this one they are all giving me the Evil Eye - don't really like to dress up and pose, but they are all looking into the camera. This was my Christmas card for 2011.

It's been a while since I've been on the site. I lost my Grover in 2010 and for a while couldn't look at my dog pictures. Since then we have added Puck to the family. He's a rescue that came up from California with Pawsitive Match. He's been through two Canadian winters now and seems to love it here. He's called a Lhassa type but we really don't have a clue about him. He was found as an adult so the age estimate is about 4 years now. The other two have been posted here before, Pepper (Shih tzu x age approx. 6) and Tigger (Papillon age approx. 5).

Humph CsqU4r3d...Gryphon & Chum look like they have a few things in common.

The picture of Gryphon was from when he "fell" into the water rather than enjoying a swim. He doesn't know how to swim.

Sweet Chum.
