I have acquired another crested model. This is Chess, my new baby. I know I cut off the top and bottom but it was our only shot with the ears up as he was still very unsure of the new surroundings.

What a lovey powder puff. How is he adjusting to the rest of your pack?
You could add a bit of breather room to the top and bottom if you really do not like what you have. I would like to see him from a little bit lower angle since then I might get to see those lovely eyes.
Congratulation on the new member of your family.

OK, I had time to fix it.

Very cute! I have a friend who shows and raises cresteds. She says the crested ring is much less.. competitive.. Than the Dane ring(she also shows and raises them)

Hi Kristina,

Much better job on the 2nd shot. What light set-up are you using? The light looks very soft. On my LCD (not sure how it will look on the CRT), there is some loss of highlight around the neck.

The place we took this photo has 2 HUGE picture windows so the only light we used was sunlight.
