The only comedy here bazza is you.
Have fun with your Blackberry, be sure to check your Face Book account. What a child...What an idiot!

Very interesting louise, thanks for that. Seeks the truth, nice to see you do comedy as well as dull. Have you ever heard of mobile internet, no need to sit indoors at a computer nowadays, you should try it, go on don't be so DULL, lmfao. My Blackberry is an amazing thing.lol.

Not a fake color--just perception of a color determined by color temperature in ambient lighting conditions in which the photo was taken.

Fake color in this photo.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin#Color_temperature

"The kelvin is often used in the measure of the color temperature of light sources. Color temperature is based upon the principle that a black body radiator emits light whose color depends on the temperature of the radiator. Black bodies with temperatures below about 4000 K appear reddish whereas those above about 7500 K appear bluish. Color temperature is important in the fields of image projection and photography where a color temperature of approximately 5600 K is required to match "daylight" film emulsions. In astronomy, the stellar classification of stars and their place on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram are based, in part, upon their surface temperature, known as effective temperature. The photosphere of the Sun, for instance, has an effective temperature of 5778 K."

Even when I walk my dog during sunset hours, his reddish tan appears to glow. Sometimes, the black hair takes on a reddish tinge.

I have a pictures of a dog taken under similar lighting conditions and appearing irridescent. Color is based on color temperature and is measured in Kelvin units.

Bazza, if you "Get Out" and see dogs this color then it's time for you to get out and get your eyes checked. It shows the level of your intelligence that you would relate my avatar to me having a very dull life....what an idiot you are! I don't live in a dull place, I live in the real world. As far as getting away from my computer you should heed your own advice, looking at the amount of posts you have you seem to live on this site, talk about getting out or getting a life... HA!
I only post when I see B.S. like this, only an idiot such as yourself would defend a picture like this as being the natural color of this dog. Wake up idiot, instead of defending your friends or attacking people that "Call Out" the B.S. artists try using the brain that God gave you to think intelligently for a change.

Hexe, and what an excellent photo it is.
Seeker of truth??? NO DOG IS THAT COLOUR???? WTF, you obviously don't get out much or judging by your dull black and white avatar, live in a very dull place and have a very dull life with a very dull outlook on everything judging by all your dull comments. Shame.....try getting out more and away from your computer, get a bit of colour into your life, lmao.

Yea well in any event that is NOT the natural color of that, or ANY dog unless they live on 3 mile island. Very misleading original comment by you, I'm glad you clarified it.

Haven't been smoking anything. The photo was taken in the evening, with the setting sun to my back, and the camera automatically set the exposure. My point was simply that the picture hasn't been Photoshopped in any way, that's all.

What have you been smoking?????
The photo may not have been "retouched" as you put it, but the exposure of the picture is WAY off. You can tell by the dogs tongue and eyes and color of the grass, NO WAY that is the natural color of that dog!

Updated photo taken 7-9-10, and is NOT retouched in any way. She really IS that 'red'. I didn't believe it either, until I saw her for myself.
