Thank you!

? There are so many natural and truly important things to be thankful for-- but it's your thanks.

I find the shallow depth of field doesn't work well for me here. There just doesn't seem to be much to the photo, and it doesn't work aesthetically because of the DOF and upper left glare, at least for me.

Cute shot. I would suggest cropping the top to make her even more significant in the frame and put her head in the top 1/3.. Also, she's very nicely lit, but the surroundings could be a bit brighter.

Good idea, and well done. Did you consider having for the foot coming in at an angle compositionally, and did you try a softer focus? I think that might have improved it personally, Little feet are soft, but the sharpness here makes this look adult. Also, the ring showing through would have been better if not there, and even for sharp focus, the lighting is a bit harsh and reflective.

Good shot of the dog, I know they aren't easy! What kind of dog is this?

Great emotive shot. It mght have been good to capture the whole shadows in the foreground, and to meter off of the brighter areas to eliminate the overexposure and blooming at the top right. The subjects work well as sillouettes, so they can be darker without loss of the impact. Nice catch.

I scored this above average but it might have done better if larger FYI.

I don't like the wall here, but I don't think the shot has enough compositionally without it either. Might have worked better in landscape withouut the wall, or move to a better location with better view of the GG bridge (Not a voter here, just offering some feedback).

Well done, good composition, clarity, and color.

I assume this was staged, because while she's dressed for the part, the location would have been better in a city setting. Still good work overall.

A Wise Choice?

No, not wise. The toilet will clog and you will have to hire a plumber, which will cost a lot!

This is very creative anyway, but I do have a few nits with the photo itself. Next time try some more interesting lighting; side light would have worked well here. Also, I might have tried some other angles, or at least a different crop; I am not sure the asymmetry works well here.
