This was taken of a friends dog after walking a 24 round of disc golf. Every tree we can to the dog looked for shelter. It was 80+ out with barely a gust every now and then. She was too excited to drink the water that was being offered (though she did from time to time).

This photo was cropped, angled, and then grayscaled.

Feedback is much appreciated seeing as I'm just starting out. Thank you!!

I like this quite a lot. The dog could almost be a loping lion. Tree, dog, shade minimally drawn: you don't want any more effort on a hot day. As well, I am impressed because I know this was taken in bright overhead sun - something I have yet to make work to advantage.

not sure but I think you over sharpened your photo, there are white halos in the tree branches...and it is overexposed

The panting of the dog makes this look very warm indeed.
