Red, blue, green, yellow eyes!?!?!
I have a lot of trouble getting pictures when Gabrina's eyes aren't glowing blue, green, or yellow. And when I try to edit it out I make things worse. So how to do keep your dogs' eyes from glowing in pictures?
No flash! It's as simple as that :) Flash is a puppy's most evil enemy :) Taking mainly outside pictures and not using flash inside is best, although most cameras will automatically use flash inside due to not so great lighting.
Getting the pup not to look directly at the camera helps a bit as well, although most people want their dogs to look directly at the camera it reduces the creepy eyes if they don't but not as much as no flash!
Yep... I second the no flash. Look for good natural lighting, or turn off the flash and hope you and she hold still for a longer exposure. That's why half my pictures are slightly fuzzy... I rarely use the flash!
I am a Senior in High School raising my third and fourth puppies for Guide Dogs for the Blind. My first puppy, Gabrina, a female yellow lab, is working in California. My second puppy, Betsy, was career changed for fear of public places and is now living at home with me! I am currently raising Jorinda, a female yellow lab and Petunia, also a female yellow lab. Follow my crazy puppy raising journeys!
