This is fun and weird. I love the perspective.

Oh my gosh!!!! Yes, this is a very good picture. Nice focus on the glasses w/o taking focus away from the dog.

I hope you gave him some treats after that...lol, funny shot.

Now this is cute - I actually chuckled out loud! Great perspective shot!

Definately the best pet picture here. 9

Well I have to say I am not normally a big fan of 'cutesy' animal/pet pics, but I really like this one because rather than just plonk a pair of glasses on a creature you have executed a really good shot. Super perspecive, effective blurring whilst maintaining a great sharpness on the subject and a wonderful black and white conversion

A shame you lost the tip of the front paw but still a solid 8 from me

i knew i'd run in to some pups sooner or lately, but this one is intriguing. Glad you went B&W.

love the comp here and the expression on dog's face, 8

Excellent job with perspective and contrast. Well done.

I like the shape the dog makes but one paw is cut off and the background is too busy.

Nice perspective.

You may get a ribbon with this one!

Nice choice of focal length to exaggerate the dog's head.
