I don't know if people would have been more enamored of my entry had I been allowed to include the "frames" around the pseudo-glasses, but I didn't see any other entries which showed the view as would actually be seen by a dog ...
The processed area is the original picture run through the image-processing tool at Dog-Vision.com and then dropped into a selection. Dogs see things differently than humans ... try it with your own entry and see what you get! :-)

I like the visual POV images... but there's also the THOUGHT Point of view of dogs. The description did not say it had to be visual POV.
I liked the thought processes of dogs... since I've spent many hours wondering about what they're thinking...
I can already see what they see... if I get down low enough.
I look at them many times as they look at something... and... wonder what in the world that they are thinking! (If indeed one of ours actually HAS thoughts. Ha! He's a charmer, not a thinker, I think. )
It was a fun challenge, for sure.

Exactly my view also, my dog is literally my Buddie, seems we have a connection. His thinking process I can usually figure out by his body language. In other words my view on this challenge was not only what they see when they are walking around, getting down low and duplicating, my idea was to show him and his thought process. It definitely was a fun challenge. |

Not that I'm looking for anyone to be DQ'd, but since you're on the SC and we're all still figuring out the new rulesets, I'm wondering if your addition of "glasses" to the image violates the You may not... add graphics or clip art images to your entry or its border during editing. rule? It certainly wouldn't have passed muster under the old Advanced rules because of the "image area" rules.
I'm honestly just looking for clarification because as I see it you have an added glasses graphic with some level of opacity or blend mode applied (or used as a clipping mask), and if this legal then it opens up a world of possibilities in Standard that I never would have expected to be legal. |

| I didn't add any graphics to my entry -- I created a selection area and pasted a processed copy of the image into the selection, since the Dog-Vision tool doesn't work as a plug-in filter, but only as a stand-alone processor. The "frame" in my out-take (what I posted here) was simply a stroke applied to the selection, but that was deemed illegal and I removed it from the entry after asking about it before entering ... |

n the former Advanced Editing ruleset, there was a particular area of ambiguity that had to do with what were termed "new features", which we weren't allowed to add to our images. Folks are correct that what GeneralE did with this entry would have been forbidden under Advanced rules. But let's look at what we DID allow people to do under that ruleset, specifically vignettes and sky gradients, both of which arguably created "new features" but both of which were a standard part of the photographer's basic processing workflow in the the darkroom days. So that was always an annoying inconsistency.
The way the rule stands now, there's no proscription against adding new features in post processing. Arguably, even the stroke around the selection should now be legal, but we advised GeneralE not to risk it with this entry.

| BTW when one of my images is subject to validation (it's happened quite a few times) I don't participate in the discussion or vote ... |

| Thanks for the clarification. Again, my intention was not to put the image up for a DQ (I could have done that directly) but to understand the ability to add a clearly shaped graphic (whether by shape insertion or by selection) as a part of the Standard ruleset. |
