Feedback

We're half way through Embark already, can you believe it! So for this challenge it's time to do a little soul searching.

This style of shot can be a great way to introduce variety into a session, especially if you usually shoot from a very low angle. The high angle and the expression, are sure to tug at the heartstrings, and people really relate to this view of their dog.

They see it every day when they look down at them. These images can feature just the dog's face filling the frame, or they can be framed wider to include more of the body.

This shot really plays on the whole "eyes are the windows to the soul" saying with the eyes being big, bright, and sharp, and a shallow depth of field turning everything else into soft blur.

Well done to all who submitted.

Challenge Brief

Shoot from a high angle, looking down at the subject as they look up and make eye contact. The face should be evenly lit, with sharp focus on the eyes. Ensure the background is pleasing and non-distracting.
