| Lady was a beautiful dog. She reminds me a lot of the Irish Setters we used to have - specially since in a b&w photo you can't tell that the colour isn't the same. |

| "Sweet" is the right adjective for me, too... she looks SO sweet. I see the cloudy eyes you mention, and I love her "smile". :) Her ears look so silky soft. |

Sometimes we wonder if our dong Tank isn't part flatcoat. We will never know.
What a sweet dog you have here! |

*Greetings From the Critique Club*
Nice dog! :)
Composition:
One thing that I personally would have helped this shot is a tighter crop. I feel that there is just a little bit too much space to the left and on the top. A crop that would work would be to make the crop on the left side as the same as the right by making both sides of the picture touching the ear on the dog. This would add a more balanced feel. As for the top and bottom, I wouls shave a little off both to give more emphasis on the dogs face.
I personally enjoy the black and white treatment, seems to work quite well here. I really like the looks of your dog, good, strong, and healthy looking.
Lighting:
Overall, I feel the lighting is good here, maybe a tad bit harsh. I can see a little bit of over-exposure in the mouth and a little bit on the nose. Again, good choice using black and white. I say this because I can see I wide scale of darks and lights.
Other Comments/Feelings:
I did also notice a couple of things about this shot. A few minor clean-up issues (small things that make a huge difference): the hair hanging from his chin distracts from the quality of the picture and also the hair on the nose. Like I said, just small little nit-picky things that make a huge difference in the over-all feel of a shot. One thing though that I really thought was interesting was the dog's eyes, very interesting adn mystifying.

| This is interesting but somehow I want more - color? cropping? I'm not sure what it is. |
