We had a fund raiser for the Humane Society this passed weekend. The family in the photo had driven 1-1/2 hrs to attend...but their 14 year old dog was unable to participate because of her hips giving her problems. Instead they set on a bench and watched the other dogs and owners

Looks very soft, but nothing applying USM can't fix :)

Good one. I like the caption.

Who is too old? The dog or the lady? Why is this news? This might be more convincing as a journalistic photo if the headline made sense. As it is, it looks rather like a decent snapshot. It is a bit overexposed, we can't see the dog's face so the main interest is lost, and the guy is out of focus. The framing shows promise. Next time, get the dog's attention so the viewer's interest is drawn in. The people just aren't compelling enough subjects and even if they were, their faces are effectively obscured by sunglasses.

That hat really balances the composition and leads the eye. You just raised your score.

Decent photo. Seems rather dull moment, however. And the headline sure seems fishy. They don't look too old. . . (the dog too old?) I don't get it.
