I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth's sweet flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

-- Joyce Kilmer

heh! This is my second go around with voting and I did not see the title the first time. Natural motion of course - lucky you that this did not occur in the house! Funny...

The art of photography and the art of peeing...nice :) Like the color selection you've done. I imagine the dog didn't stand out very much in all the brown leaves. Lots of emotive value in the the face...aahhhhhhhh

I love this. I like how everything else but the dog is desaturated. Cute pooch too. ;)

An interesting approach to the challenge subject if only because it's such a natural image - it's what dogs do. Nicely detailed and a terrific combination of color and gray scale. Probaly not to every viewer's taste, it is a clever and unique composition. Well done.
