Our dog loves to play in his pool when it gets hot and it gets hot a lot here in Mississippi.

overexposed (loss of detail in floor and dog), unsharp (bot dog movement, but also surroundings), poor composition (a shot closer to the dog from the left of your current standpoint would have been better, right part of current image does not add anything, just distracts). Think about what you want to show : it is the fun the dog has, right ? So get closer, show the dog. And why is the dog still on the leash ?

Great subject, though some of the highlights seem a bit blown out, and a tighter shot might help.

Great subject! I think the hot spots from the sun are a little distracting... maybe you could have underexposed some more and let the left corner go darker.

I know how he feels! The dogs days hit here this week. I like the light in his coat and the water splashing.

Great action shot. It looks a little fuzzy to me.

Maybe a close up on the dog would be better and lacks sharpness.

the part of the dog close to the water looks ghostly, neat

A little on the bright side. I think i would have tried darkening the pciture and added more contrast.

Would have rated higher if it wasn't as bright and colors were a bit more vibrant.

What a fun shot. I would like to see this one zoomed closer into the dog and the splash and also a bit sharper. The soft focus is a bit distracting.

too much space away from the dog - i would have scored higher if the shot were cropped tighter on the dog. cool action pic of the dog though.
