Quite seriously, I think this is my favourite pic in the entire competition... is there something wrong with both of us that we see this as amazing?

Perhaps I am partial to it because of the breed of dog, which I am familiar with, or maybe the soft bed of hay, but I really think it is the beautiful face... the softness. The title, the fact that she guards your children.

This should be on the cover of a huge coffee table book, or a wonderful framed portrait on the wall.

PLEASE don't be disheartened by the 'score' because this photo is a thing of beauty.

It almost makes me cry.

This dog looks great, cradled in the hay. He's a bit soft, but when it comes to these dogs so am I. 7.

I think if you had gotten a tad lower and had him/her look at you - this would have made this good photo - great.

He's ready to start herding. Nice soft composition.
