You may or may not be aware that this is one of the photos being used in the online "publications" referenced here: DPC forum thread on LBNelert
I noticed it when I was searching for my own. There were so many from DPC that I could not document them all - if you want to have it removed, see posts from LydiaToo and Mike_311 on p. 5 of the forum thread.

This one doesn't look over-exposed to me - well maybe there's a bit of loss of detail in the top of the head but I can't really see. I hate when I have my settings wrong for an entire shoot - as I did with the snow geese recently. Each time I swear I'll remember next time and then something else "goes wrong" LOL I think pelicans are such funny guys - especially when they open those big mouths! Nice shot.

Very cute - excellent focus on the eyes.

This is my pick. I like that she's alone so there's no competition (in the one with three girls, I find the one with her back to us distracting) and I really like her expression, and the slight motion blur on her snapping fingers and the flying hair add to the energy here.

Nice focus on the eyes - with more light, perhaps you could bet a smaller aperture and focus on the nose, too. Very cute dog.

The baby has great eyes - I would like more light on the subject, I think. Agree with bsluijk that the extended arm and hand are disorienting in a disturbing way, probably because the distortion is so unexpected in a baby picture.

I like this a lot. Especially appreciate your "editing" decisions. True love is always wonderful.

So fresh and clean and perfectly Valentine's day - USA style :) I thought this would finish quite a bit higher.
