Greetings from the Critique Club!
Composition:
I like this photo quite a bit. It is very grainy, the quality is very poor, and yet I like it. It's rather comforting, I can't explain it.
Lighting:
The lighting is harsh, the sun is very bright washing out the entire sky. The back of the dog's neck is washed out. All the same it has this surreal feel to it. The grass doesn't even look like grass. THe dog is about the only thing that "grounds" the photo, the only thing looking real. But the colors are warm, and I really like that.
Technical:
I'm going to blame most of the technical shortcomings on the camera. The graininess, the poor quality of the image etc. I think for what you were working with, it's not bad.
Post-processing:
Not sure what you did to it, but it could use some noise removal.
Overall:
Despite the very poor photo quality I actually _like_ the photo. There is something very familiar about it, something extremely comforting. I think you realize you weren't going to win any ribbons with this shot, but I still think it's a good submission. Keep up the good work. |

| Good idea but it's really blown out on the top. That dog's adorable and good idea! |

| I love the shot, but it's very blurry. I've been trying to get one of these with my dog, but always run into the bluriness as well. |

| I think the photo is too blurry to score very high, and I probably would have used much less surrounding space around the dog. Has some of the "snapshot" look. |

| Great capture of the action - but taken right into the sun. Hope you tried different angles. |

| Great idea, but the saturated sky and glare kinda ruin the effect |

| Neat, though the quality of the image is low. I think the blurred background, which is free of noise, really kills this. |
