| Well a show breeder recently told me that the eye shine thing when you take pictures and coat types is just a tale that was started by another show person a few years ago and it just went round and round like so many internet things do. Now, i can't say that i know that to be the truth but would believe it until I actually read research provng it. Ceeby has a true Silk coat and I have pictures of him with every color of eye in the rainbow. |

| Glowing Eyes in Photos So ... since a lot of us can take nice photos of our Yorkies with glowing eyes, does anyone have any pointers of how to take a good indoor picture without this posessed look? What causes the eyes to glow ... is it the flash being too bright indoors? I am so tired of having cute photos ruined with those eyes. I have attached a photo of Kiki with glowing eyes. This is my new digital camera I just purchased last week. I think the glow is worse with my new camera .. Kiki's eyes glow green and some are bright yellow. Anyone with indoor photo taking pointers???? Anna www.dogster.com/dogs/511397 |

| When I went to get my Diesel, his mama had the most beautiful green glowing eyes. Everytime the sunlight would come through the window and hit her eyes they were bright green. I hope his are like that too!

| Yup...some pointers would be great! Hmmm I just tried uploading some creepy-glowing-eyes pics of Tia and it's not working. If I can get it to work, I'll post.

| hope this helps a little... I'm pretty sure they change colors with what angle to light is reflecting off of their inner eye. If you have a red-eye eliminator on your camera, keep that turned on. Its not perfect but it helps. Basically, it does a little quick flash to get the eye to close up a little before the big flash for the picture goes off. Its really hard to not get that unless you have a flash (or a light source) to the side of the camera. For humans, you keep red-eye away by making sure they don't look directly into the flash (a little off to the side is what your after, or directly into the lens) but dogs see the flash and thats what they look at. Your best pictures are going to be done with natural lighting. Keep the shades open if its daylight and night time you don't really have a lot of options. But of course, thats why they make programs that easily get the red-eye out after the fact....

| For sure we need mythbusters. All i know is my Baxter is not a silky and his eyes glow green, even in sunlight and the Silky mom of my baby girl that is 5 months glow amber in photos, as well as my baby girls eyes in photos and ordinary room lighting. although she has also been red, blue, and green. almost all the rainbow colors in photos. So i guess its all in what you see. im sure there are exceptions to this rule i would think? maybe thats what i have? my baby girls parents were both silky coats. i believe she will be as well. she appears to have that coming in. |

| I can never get the red eye remover to work with my dog pics. It only works for actual red-eye for me. I wish that I could get it to work for dogs. Lola always has yellow eye and Joes are green/yellow.

| Ahhh! The better to see you with, my dear! That retina glow helps them to see at night much better than us humans can. ----------------Interesting internet find... A number of studies have been done to investigate the color vision of dogs, and the results have been conflicting. However, more recent, better controlled studies indicate that dogs do possess and use color vision, but not to the same degree that humans do. The photoreceptor used for color vision is the cone, and there are cones present in the canine retina. However, they are present in low numbers, comprising less than 10% of the total photoreceptor population in the central area of the retina, as opposed to the human retina which consists of nearly 100% cones in the fovea. Two distinct type of cones appear to be present in the canine retina. One type is maximally sensitive to light in the wavelength that appears violet to people, and the other type is maximally sensitive to light in the wavelength that appears yellow-green to people. Thus, it appears that the visual spectrum of color in dogs is divided into two hues; one in the violet and blue-violet range, probably appearing as blue, and the other in the greenish-yellow, yellow, and red range, which is probably seen as yellow. Light that appears blue-green to people probably appears as white or shades of gray to dogs. Dogs are unable to differentiate colors that appear as green, yellow-green, orange or red to people, and are unable to differentiate greenish-blue from gray. This is similar to people who are red-green color blind. However, one study indicates that dogs are better able to differentiate between subtle shades of gray than people, which would be advantageous in increasing visual discrimination in low light conditions, where insufficient light is available to stimulate cones. --------------------
