Armed with the off camera flash, wireless triggers ant a 12mm Kenko Tube, I first drew some stick like pictures and posed the corpse. You know the stuff, staircases, horses etc.
None of these were particularly good, so I just tried different angles for the flash, at different power settings until I came up with this.

Can’t be bothered to do much processing so you get it here in all it’s dead, and decaying glory….. Quite like the ‘expression on it’s poor dead face.

How wrong could you get? – Every dog I’ve ever had, has had a better life than me. A dogs life, in my world, is one of regal laziness. A life where everything you ever need is handed to you on a plate, you’re constantly showered with unsolicited affection and love and generally speaking, it’s all pretty cushy.

Regal and Aloof

See what I mean?????
