 I usually like it when Mac has his ears perked up and he used to have a black nose that looked better but it turned pink as he aged. I liked the stoic expression on his face, seems to contrast nicely with the whimsy of the boa he\'s wearing. shot RAW and converted. levels, curves and a little saturation boost.

Not a dignified thing to do to poor Mac!

"Lovey, This was not my idea of dress up for the 10th Anniversary on the island. At least the investors won't see me chase Gilligan up a tree for this." :}

Cute, nice focus lighting and composition. I'm not sure on the rules but maybe you could have cleaned up the light spot over the dogs head.

OMG, this is very funny. Excellent composition, but the lighting seems a little hot on the top of his head.

6 - Poor Mac. He looks somewhat insulted. Variation in the background to 'take full advantage' of this set up, including the colors, may have given this an edge. Minor, but seems to be an 'issue' (white spot) behind Mac's head to the left of frame. Some sensor dust / something to the left of that too.

HEEEE. One of the few that truly suits the challenge in my book. Deliberate and not a snapshot. CUTE. Love the boa.

lol Love the dogs pose. Fun shot. Background is a bit blah and washes the shot out a little. Still the boa is nice and colorful.
