| Not sure this would work for the Head and Shoulders marketers ;-) Really like the framing of the stepped fence behind the dog. Might've cloned out the green wire fence but that's a relative nit. |

| Cute dog, cute title. Nice DOF and I like the green contrasted with the black and white of the fur. |

| Nice details on the dog, he needs to stand out more from the background to have more overall impact. Recommend you selectively , blur the background more (add gaussian blur, try different strengths) and increase the dog's contrast from the rest of the surroundings carefully. 6 |

Don't take this the wrong way but as I see DPC as a learning experience here is my frank critique:
This comes across as a snapshot. By that I mean that I feel that anybody standing where you were with a camera could have gone click and got this result. I think a photographer should aim to do more than that. I may be wrong and perhaps you do have more of a story to your shot but the fact is that it doesn't come across to the viewer.
As an example, if you were in Paris and saw the Eiffel Tower you could hold the camera and go click. You'd have a shot that millions of other tourists have and would be good as a record of your holiday. I think at DPC you need more than that. You need to consider the POV - make it something that enhances the tower (include a flowerbed or kissing couple in the foreground), make use of lighting (dusk for shadows), composition (maybe include the buildings beside it to get a sense of scale).
I hope this helps and please don't be offended, I'm only offering an opinion. |

| A greater aperture and shallower depth of field on this shot would have made it superb ... the expression on the dogs face is fabulous, and I just love the title! |

| Sheep Man's Dog. A neighbor had a dog like this when I was little. Was fun to watch him "herd" the sheep. Nice DOF,crisp focus and use of snow against the black fur. |

| I like the expression of this dog. Maybe a shallower DOF would have brought the dog out more. |

He was having such a great day, rolling and playing in this fantastic white fluffy stuff. Cool to the touch, and so fun to snap at. He danced and barked and ...
... stopped dead as his ears picked up the unmistakable sound of Timmy, in trouble once again! He perked up his ears, looked off in the direction of the faint cries for help and knew that his fun in the snow was over.
Now, now it was time for action. |
