Eyes and Energy- Attempt 2

This is proving to be much harder than I thought.  Getting Kodi to look at me, getting him in focus, and getting his eyes to really shine.

We went to our neighborhood park today.  And I managed to get a few photos of him.  The only ones that came out are the ones where he was trapped in the red wagon.

First one he spys a plane.  The second one I am singing Moon Moon Moon.

 

I took these with 50mm 1.8 lens at f2.8.  I am still trying to figure out how far to get away from him to get him in focus, and what aperture to set it the camera.
