In a low spot, so couldn't get much landscape in the background. MN tallgrass prairie that has never had the sod busted or turned over. Per the US Fish and Wildlife Service.

Great looking dog and photo. Mind disclosing at least the state you were in?

Mutthunt asked: "How'd you get the dog to stay still??" Say "stay" or "whoa."

Try asking "what restaurant did you eat at last night?" Ha ha! Inquiring minds want to know!

How did it survive that? Was it always part of some federal land?

From what I read it's fertile ground but there's a few veins of large rock running through it so it was never plowed. It was used for livestock grazing. Fortunately US fish and wildlife bought it a few years back and now it's federal land.

Montana. I hunt every weekday morning, so ease the dogs and myself back into shape.
Week 1, first hour of the morning.
Week 2, first 2 hours of the morning.
That way the dogs feet toughen up, and we hunt while it is cool, then head home.

My dog hates photos.....but if I get him to focus on something else, I can usually get a good photo. I use the multiple shot function.
I also like to use portrait mode at times too. Highlights the close up and not the background. Angle is also very important as mentioned.

On action shots... Start taking them before you think it will be the right shot and keep hitting the button!

Not sure if they’re better at having their photo taken or finding pheasants…

And be ready with your phone camera. Yes, I occasionally miss a shot at a bird trying to get a photo, but it is worth it!
Me and a buddy were blocking a tree row when I took these photos of Dixie digging my buddies crippled pheasant out of a hole. I was about to grab her hind legs and pull her out if she got in any farther, but I noticed she was trying to back out, so I let her, and she came out with the bird! Craziest retrieve I've seen!
seen lol!

Excellent! Catch light in the dog's eyes in each photo.

I got 2 out of 3 objectives in this one: catch light in the dog's eyes and the landscape.
Did not get below the dog level because I wanted to capture more of the landscape and the rainbow.
Catch light in the dog's eyes is usually an aspect that is easy to capture and draws connection to the dog.
