 I was trying to create a sense of confusion through which living things move with their own agendas. The animals are in control no matter how much "stuff" surrounds them.

Probably not doing so well as it is not really a portrait.
Here is the wikipedia definition of a portrait:
A portrait is a painting, photograph, sculpture, or other artistic representation of a person, in which the face and its expression is predominant. The intent is to display the likeness, personality, and even the mood of the person. For this reason, in photography a portrait is generally not a snapshot, but a composed image of a person in a still position. A portrait often shows a person looking directly at the painter or photographer, in order to most successfully engage the subject with the viewer.

This scene has too much going on and is very busy. Not quite sure what the objective here is, maybe picking just one subject to simplify.

yeah, by the 5000 lb tortie tilting the floor. One good shot of one animal is better than one poor shot of three. Check out the challenge winners, I guarantee that they are all of ONE animal apiece.

Too many things to focus the eyes on and the focus appears soft to me, like the focal point is on the box behind the dog.
