Lovely dog, good interaction with photographer. My only quibble is that the dog is just a little too low in the frame - his (her?) paws are effectively cut-off.

You have the makings of a really good portrait here - gorgeous model, good exposure, pleasing pose from remarkably well behaved dog. I do though, wish that you had sited it further from the wall - definitely worth reshooting.

Spot on for the challenge. A Sandpiper of some sort? At any rate, from the Tringa family, and beautifully captured. The inclusion of the looming gull works really well for this challenge, although I am certain the as a stand-alone photo I would prefer it with clear negative space. In my top 5.

Cracking reflection, very well captured.I particularly like the way the foreground rocks mirror the converging clouds in the sky, all leading the eye to the hills and their reflection. Very nicely done.
As an aside, you have some sensor dust that you could do with cloning out before you print this for your wall. bumping to 9

That sunset must have been amazing! I particularly like how the light reflected on the water shows the pattern of the currents and water movement.

You have captured the lights of the city reflected in the water well. Not so keen on the converging verticals.

What an amazing bird, and so well photographed. Shame about the fairly high level of noise - might be worth trying out Topaz deNoise.

Absolutely completely and utterly stunningly gorgeous. This must be printed and framed.

A very pretty scene, well captured. I do, though, rather wish the the figure in red was captured to the side (and ideally, in this instance, on the third). The red is so bold that it continually draws my eye back in to the centre.
