I knew this one would ribbon, I voted it a 7 for excellent balance of softness and sharpness, subtle lighting and positioning all excellent. This is also one of the cutest Shelties I've ever seen!

| You should have had a minus one handicap applied to all votes you get because Jake is so good looking. Nice pic with lovely lighting. 7. |

| Beautiful Photo, I am not sure about the background color....something just catches me as a bit off. Would have liked to see a bit more of the other eye, but that is just a preference thing. Love the lighting and good for you for cleaning your dog before taking a "glamor shot." Great shot overall. A 9 from me! |

| great color and the first shot and i think the only shot in this comp. that pulls of the soft feel. very well lit. However, i don't like that Jake's ear is cropped off in this. |

Very nice.
Great lighting
Cropped a little too tight at the top, and the use of a soft box makes the fur appear very matt and dull. If you used a more spectral light source like a silver umbrella or beauty dish, there would be a bit more shine in the fur.
Beautiful looking dog by the way. |

| With all of the planning, grooming and lighting (and patience on both parts, I imagine), it seems like the ears would not have been cut off. *sigh* Still a 7 from me. |
