Aperture: f/5.6

The halos/PP damage is the result of:

- extreme crop from original, almost 640 to start with
- really bad/harsh light
- 10 minutes for PP before deadline so no time for small brush and detailed work

I guess I shouldn't have posted it the way it is but I liked the captured moment and I thought the team could use an extra entry.

Very sweet. there is sort of an etching around the subjects, maybe from post processing.

I like the mood of this picture but the haloing (I'm assuming from dodge/burn) around the dog and hair is somewhat distracting

Very tender. Looks as if there is a story behind this one.

Very sweet moment to capture. The dog looks very pixelated, which detracts from the beauty of the scene.

Something across the dogs nose is distracting...

Very sweet but way too much PP which totally lets this image down.

Nice capture...but the haloing and loss of detail and artifacting has really destroyed this image.

I'm sure the halo comments are rolling in. Very cute!

I don't like the haloing. otherwise a great capture.

This is cute. I like the sepia. Maybe next time try using a smaller brush & magnified view when you dodge an area ...

I love the glow here, it represents some sort of bonding to me. Only one thing I'd like to see is the seemingly 'lost' detail in the dog reclaimed.

Lovely shot of the child and dog caught in a moment. Not sure what has happened either in camera or PP but the fur on the dogs face is coming out very weird on my monitor (almost like a semi negative effect) which sadly really detracts from a lovely shot
