What a repose. here the brain has severed all ties to the muscular system and only relaxation reighns supreme. A lesson in resting and letting go. Good image with great color.

i love the angle and the dog's expression. as a constructive criticism i would suggest that your white balance mey have been slightly off.

Very nice sharpness on the dog... but he doesn't look very sleepy he seems more focused on something... Even thought the background is almost the same color as the dog you did a great job by separating it from the dog with the DOF... very nicely done.

Nice looking dog. Good use of shallow depth of field to keep the background out of focus but would benefit with a plain light colored background.

beautiful shot. very well done. most people don't realize how much effort it takes to get this amount of detail so sharply focused with this type of lighting. great job, hope it does well for you.
