Description

A golden retriever is captured lying flat on a dark grey seamless studio backdrop in this portrait by photographer Andy Mahr in Chicago. The dog rests its head between its outstretched front paws, looking forward with attentive brown eyes and dark fur highlights. Soft directional lighting accentuates the texture of the thick golden-brown coat across the head and back. The composition centers tightly on the animal, emphasizing its facial features against the neutral, shadowed ground.
