Long hair shep image 

I've rechecked the old image, and I still don't think it's a good one for the article. Even in full size, the dog is front-on, so only the tufts of fur from the ruff are visible. In a thumbnail the long hair features are not visible at all, and it looks like a poor focused "generic German Shepherd" picture. The picture I replaced it with is side-view. Even in a thumbnail the features are visible, and because it's a side view, the long hair influence is visible on the neck and haunches which is not the case even at high resolution with the older image.

I don't do much image work, but this one was crying out for a better one and has been for ages, to my eyes. Can you take another look at both, and reconsider the full images, and the thumbnail images of each revision, and my comments on these above. Many thanks. FT2 (Talk | email)
