The bull terrier, together with the Amstaf, must be my favorite dogs. I had the privalidge to own both.

You have a great image her. I would love to have the opportunity to shoot an owl like that.

I think what hurt your score might be the fact that this pic could do with some more sharpening. What programme do you use for post processing? If it is PSCS2, try smart sharpening or LAB sharpening. This pic is good enough to be given more attention.

Thank you so much, I am sharing this with a tear.

My son has deteriorated so much in the last year that it pains me. A few years ago he had these 'little seizures' maybe once a week. Now it is an average 3 times a day with the fear of a big one at any time.And the little ones are leaving so totally confused that it is scary. But he knows God and that brings him some concelation.

Thank you for caring. May you and yours have a very blessed 2007.

Brad, do not allow this placing to get to you. Although you should know in general DPC do not like pics of dolls and toys and whatever, you should remind yourself that you take pics for yourself. The only way to improve is by noting what they 'say' in their scores and comments... and then to go and improve on it.

Congratulations on the new camera and lenses.... now you are going to kick ass!

This an awesome photograph. It tells the truth about such a large portion of our society, actually,the story of one and all at some times although we may never want to admit it.

I love the skew doorframe, the use of contrast, the black and white. A well deserved top 5 placing.
