I'm sure the border isn't going to fly well here. I kinda like it myself. I had second thoughts about it right before the deadline and tried to change it to the no-border version but was a few seconds too late. :|

Interesting border. I wasn't aware that this was legal. "You may: add a border to the outside edge of your entry."

Was this validated? I'd like to know for future information. I would think that a border inside the image would be "adding a new object" in the image.

I love that red color... congrats on your high finish.

I hope the frame isn't DQable. I don't think it helps what was a fantastic photo to begin with. Good luck!

very good pet portrait, but I don't go for this kind of framing - way overdone - deducting 2 points for that sin

I really like the boarder on this picture - a 3d look to it. Awesome.

What sweet pupster! Nice take on a portrait shot! The color on bw really works here. And although the frame/border really works, I don't know how it will play out with the rules and all. Although this is "advanced" so hopefully it's ok.

Alright, you've probably gotten several comments on it, but I personally think the border is really more distracting than anything else. The colors are terrific though!

Maybe its just me or my 3rd cup of coffee this morning, but that border make the image look like it's moving.
