Golden Retriever in the Snow

If you think she looks ready to go, you are probably right. I was shooting landscape images in the fresh snow and someone let the dog out. She of course thinks she must always be outside if someone else is, but ... I didn't want my snow tracked up before getting my shots. I instructed the golden retriever to sit and she obeyed. But then I decided to make her the subject.
 
With a mostly-white, monochromatic background, the golden retriever color stands out nicely. Of course, a background blurred by the 135mm focal length and f/2 aperture helps the subject to pop as well.
