| How to get a good picture of your furbaby 101 I took pics last night of my girls and I have had a lot of people ask me "how do you get them to pose for you" or "how do you get them to stay still"? Here is the link to the pics. http://yorkietalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=120047 When I take pics of my girls I ALWAYS #1 find a place with good lighting #2 use a table or chair (something off the ground) When they are up higher it's easier to get their attention #3 I hold a piece of cheese with mt lips so they are looking at it (by holding it with my lips they are looking just under the lens which will help prevent green/red/orange eye. #4 if possiable have someone else stand very close to the table and hold them till you are ready to snap. #5 LOTS and LOTS of praise When I get my camera out my Lexi will run and jump on the sofa and start posing. (she is my easiest to get pics of) I do not give them cheese any other time than picture time. That way they associate the cheese with my camera and know what is expected. Hope this helps

| LOL, shutter speed helps. Look in your camera manual and she if you can ajust your shutter speed on your camera. If so set it to 1/200.

Lovin' 2 Girls Donating Member | Well, see...there's part of the problem. We NEEEEEED a good digital. The one we have has a delay, so I'm always getting the shot AFTER the one I wanted. *sigh*
