lurchergrrl 1,441 Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 Not wildlife (but he is a bit wild ), this is my approximately 8 week old terrier, Rigby. He was far too young to leave his litter when I got him but circumstances were what they were and he came home with me. He was roughly the size of a guinea pig when I got him. I'm guessing he's a jrt/border with whatever else might be in there. He weighed 1.4kgs when I took these He's about 2.4kgs now, and finally acting like a proper puppy and not so much like a sleepy baby. I took these with my new 50mm f1.8 lens on Monday. Moll says he looks like a cut and shut Does anyone else use a 50mm lens and if so, have you any tips to share? I've got it primarily for a wedding I'm doing in August (gulp), but I'm still sussing how to get the best from it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Keeps 403 Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 Very cute puppy, and nice photos lurchergrrl Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lurchergrrl 1,441 Posted July 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 Thanks guys ... yes Keeps he's cute, but they all are, aren't they? Wasn't so cute when I caught him digging a hole in the garden. You'd never believe such a tiny puppy could dig such a big hole I've never had a terrier. I reckon this is going to an interesting ride Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I reckon this is going to an interesting ride Yeah, they are, but some are cuter than others A terrier is a different kettle of fish to a lurcher thats for sure I recently borrowed a 50 mm fast lens to try out - because its so fast, the depth of field is very shallow & its quite hard to get photos sharp but they are great for low light/indoors ..you've done extremely well Edited July 6, 2011 by Keeps 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I did get it mostly for indoor portrait type shots. Been having a fiddle with it every now and then, and got some good results and some proper crap as well Trial and error I guess. And yes he is very different to the lurchers. Now he's eating properly and steady on his feet, it's like living with a furry piranha He likes a good game of tug-and-rag as well - I personally don't appreciate it when it's my foot he's ragging! But he's got such enormous character - it'll be fun seeing what he turns out like (if he doesn't drown in a puddle first ). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
