I know there wasn't really anyway to get this shot without the cage, but it is so distracting from the real image

OK DOF got the dog. To light.

Oh good contrast.

Looks like quite the detail. Curious as to why it is in a cage?!? Is he the nurtured one, or nature?!?

great capture - keep up the good work

Haha, the dog is enjoying this. Can't make out what animal that is caged, but he's saying: "Oooh, just wait till I get out of here!"

LOL! I have pictures kind of like this but w/ our cat checking out the captured groundhog.

Great title.

It always makes me sad seeing animals in cages.. It'd be nice if this shot was sharper.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/15/2009 03:09:52 PM
doesn't quite make it past snap shot, sorry
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/15/2009 11:54:32 AM
they do seem to have an interst in each other
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I am not a fan of photos of caged animals. This is cute with the dog looking in. It would have been a bit better if the ground hog's eye was not cut off by the wire and maybe cropped a little tighter (cutting off the wood on both sides)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/15/2009 06:18:58 AM
:) cute but a bit shady and unsharp

brano ;)

The title tells me what you were trying to achieve but the cage gets in the way too much for me
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2009 10:28:50 PM
fun shot-- would have liked a little more dog face--don't know if it's possible.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2009 05:25:56 PM
I find the wires distracting but I guess they are there for a reason and I guess they do add to the story of your photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2009 04:06:06 PM
Poor critter. Curious pup
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2009 11:02:32 AM
did you use sharpen? interesting shot
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 08:42:25 PM
They have certainly captured each other's attention.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 08:40:37 PM
Awww, I don't like to see caged animals. :-(
 03/13/2009 02:49:53 PM
"You're not getting out until groundhog's day"
 03/13/2009 02:43:46 PM
Good choice of title - really works well for the contrast in this photo between the pampered pet and the wildlife.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 07:54:48 AM
A little snapshotish for me but I love the story and subjects.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 06:29:21 AM
interesting interaction between the two animals
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 02:38:54 AM
Unique.

The cage is a bit distracting for me.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Conveys the message well , but in this mother of a free study , I think this will go down to well with the crowd here. 6 from me.

 03/12/2009 05:48:02 PM
Interesting idea but I don't really think the image carries it quite there...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 01:25:04 PM
What a amusing tale you have wove..
 03/11/2009 10:57:07 PM
Stick that nose in here and I'll take a chunk out of it! or Hey! Buddy! Want to come out and play? I miss the days of film cameras that would allow you to shoot through fencing like it didn't exist.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 10:43:55 PM
A really unique photo. One thing that lessens it's impact is that even though I know the dog is outside of the cage, it still kind of looks like it's caged.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 06:38:31 PM
cute
 03/11/2009 02:56:39 PM
I like the title you chose.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 01:49:34 PM
the cage makes the picture busy taking away from the subject. the part of the dog does not help either.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 07:36:00 AM
They seems to have interest in each other. Lot of fences here.
