Model looks great! But I wish the sky were darker and the trees weren't underexposed; then that highlighting on the grass would really pop.

The Nose
by tylskie

Comment by snaffles:
Greetings from the Critique Club!

Cute shot, decent attempt at composition. The shallow dof works to accentuate the nose details, and the dog's eyes are buggy and cute (kudos for not using a flash and blinding doggy) but this shot needs a lot of work.

The colours are quite muddy, the nose isn't tack-sharp, and the whitish area behind the dog's head detracts greatly. Shooting something as unpredictable and likely to move with a shutter speed of only 1/40 rarely works well. Some kind of light bounced in to show off the dog a bit more, and would allow you to shoot with a lower ISO and higher shutter speed...all of which should help you get a much clearer shot.

Feel free to PM me with any questions,

Susan
