This is amazing, even compelling, portraiture. The angle, the gloss on her fur especially at the top of her head, the eyes, the expression really "show" this dog. A good life.

Magnificence here. Not sure about the cropping- even cropping just at the top of the ears improves it in my whatever opinion, and gets the tip of the tail, part of a great dynamic diagonal, pointing at the top corner. It also emphasizes the horse's lift off from the ground. Such a great capture of your horse, I hope you play with it some more. (No quarrels with the horse).

Interesting combination of effects - would like to see more along this line.

Trillium Grotto
by charliebaker

Comment:
Must have been very limited DOF to get just the leaves in focus - the patterns are great, and the gloss is good; the two out of focus blooms are lighted in a wonderfully similar way, and the rock background is great. A slightly different crop might have made this work better, or a different angle to give a compositional punch. (Never tired of photographing trilliums).

Had I not read your comments, I would have imagined the waves to be the comber. A very pure sort of picture, but an unusual perspective at the same time.

Smoke

Comment:
One of the best smoke pics - suggests the head of a cow. Nice lines and colours.

Expression PLUS pose or vice versa = truly wunderbar.

Stunned by the stark simplicity, the strength of the cell phone motif, and that tantalizing tidbit of the big woman's dress to compound our amazement. Makes you wonder who we are, where we are at.
