This is my wonderful dog Molly. I wanted to try shooting her because of her coloring. She is black with dark colored eyes, and I thought that it would be a fun challenge. I figured that natural light would be the best for this photo. I used basic photoshop skills to make the colors pop and the contrast more striking. 

This is a tiger that I took a photo of at a recent trip to Sedona, AZ. I don't remember what lens I used but it had some pretty serious swag. I was about 200 feet away from the tiger and I used an effect with the lens to blur out the fence. I like the picture because the tiger looks vicious as it's licking its lips.
