I think this is a bit over-exposed...but on the other hand that creates an interestin look...Okay, you get an extra point for sticking out of the crowd. NIce way to show the relationship btw man&dog. Good title. Good composition, but I'd have liked to see more of the top of the guy's head. 8.

Sweet. I like this one. Showing a bit more of the pet's head would have been nice. The girl might have looked down at the bunny(?). Some cloning for the dust would have been nice. Too bad basic editing doesn't allow it. 8.

Nice idea, I like how you show the connection between man and animal. It would have been much better if you had taken the picture form the other side - the one where both the kid and the dog are looking at. The text of the book is unimportant, the cover might even look better. This way, you might also have left the desk lamp out of the picture, which - IMO - you should have cropped anyway. 5.

I don't like this one. It' hard to see the dog, I have to guess where it's eyes are and seeing any limbs. The direct light is quite unspectacular and the flash created some ugly reflections on every metallic surface and in the eyes. I don't want to offend you, but that couch is really ugly. This is of some importance to the picture, as is is part of the background. There's almost more detail on the couch than on the dog. 2. Sorry. PM me after the challenge if you think I voted unfair on your picture.

This picture shows the relationship man-dog very well. It would have been even better if the dog had closed his eyes, like his owner. You might have used a more uniform background, the limit between couch and wall is distracting. 6.

Uh, I'm having trouble feeling the emotion in this. The dog looks quite disinterested and bored, as if he wanted to get away from the kid. Not a very good thing, considering you wanted to show the profound relationship between both. 3.

Nice idea. Though I don't think a cage in a shop would look like this. The bars are really distracting. They destroy the image, cut it in slices. They distract from both the bird and the girl. You might have let the girl watch the bird though a window, pressing her cheeks against it or looking with happiness at her future friend. 2.

Nice, I like the paralellism between pet and person! The woman (?) in the background is either to blurred or not blurred enough. This grade of blur is distracting. Getting her even more out of focus would have put more emphasis on the cat, having her sharper would have given both an equal importance to the composition. I hope this helps. Keep'em coming! 5.

Judy and Dali

Is it me or do they look alike? :) The woman really seams to love 'Dali'. Is he named after Salvador Dalí?
There are too many details in the background: the lamp, the figurine, the window curtains. They distract from the main subject.
Consider running images with lots of noise through a program like Neat Image or Noise Ninja. PSP9 has an anti-noise function, too. Sometimes noise is an interesting image feature but for this shot it's distracting.

Great. The duotone works well, so does the negative space. I'd have mirrored the picture (my eyes ar used to start at the upper-left, like most European, American etc eyes). This would have given a stronger effect to the guiding lines. I like how the picture is split into two triangles, whether that was intended or not, it look very harmonic. The soft focus adds to this. I guess you earn a 10 :)
