This was stunning.....deserved much more than the 6.8 it scored. Lighting, focus, expression, mood, everything.....

This is a beautiful portrait that should have scored even higher, I think. She's so sweet.

This is a wonderful portait of Alice. She's a very photogenic Rottweiler. This shot does works great to accentuate her sweet look. She's a cute dog. Great job with the lighting. Made my top5 favorite picks from the challenge.

This shot was one of my all time favourites in the challenge. I'm glad it ranked in the top 20, but it was a top 3 pick in my opinion.

Nice. Studio portrait stuff here. Only minor quibble I have is the tip of his head cut off. Otherwise this is really great. I expect you worked on the lighting a bit for this.

Nice pose, sweet expression, good highlights in the fur. This dog almost sparkles in the light.

8 - Really difficult to crop this I imagine, and still retain the 'eyes' as well as you have, and especially not cropping those sweet little ears. Very sweet face, which you've captured well.
