Baxter again

The skies have cleared and the kids are back to school , so it was just me and Baxter in the snow today. Shot w/ 70-300mm/4.5-5.6 IS lens at SS1/400-F4.5-ISO400. Added the border so it would stand out from the white background here.
SOOC:After (cropped, brightened, slight up contrast, slight boost in saturation, and USM):

Baxter is a great looking spaniel. Nice editing, makes him look black again.

Love the crop on the second one. I love his eyes, and like how you can see the snow on his fur.

The second one really works--very B&W, except for the punch of those gorgeous brown eyes. Nice!

That is so pretty. I love what you did and the crop is awesome, as you still get that since of the snow, but Baxter is the star!

The crop is perfect...really puts focus on the face.

Awesome crop! You did a really good job getting his coloring and cropping to keep the focus on his sweet little face.
