Meet your destiny

Very nice work.. I love the color here... I give this photo a 10, but I believe there is just a bit too much 'darkness' at the bottom of the frame for my taste... I don't know what the surroundings were like at this site, but I would have possibly framed a little higher and cut the dead space to about half of what it is here... kudos on a great shot :)

this is a really neat subject... the tonal range is fairly weak though... i think the a different exposure method could strengthen this shot quite a bit :)

I can't really judge this as a photo... it may have been a photo at one point though :)

The tonal range here is pretty flat... this does show desolation, but I think that the overall exposure of this image could be much stronger.

beautiful shot... i love the old school photography feel of this one. This sorta reminds me of a 'grapes of wrath' type scene... a bit of despair maybe... tired eyes... long day of hard work... great shot :) = 10

This is great. It's what I would call a 'perfect photo' if i had taken it myself. I commented on another pet photo today that was excellent also. Pets are 'cliche' and everyone takes photos of their pets at one time or another. Most of them look like they would make good additions to the family album rather than a piece of art worthy of framing and hanging on the wall. This photo falls into the 'hang the friggin thing on the wall' category. The old window frame really makes this shot for me. Maybe this is an old house and this window has seen more than its fair share of paint coats over its history... The window not being clean also adds a wonderful element to that overall effect. I don't know anything about the dog since it's not my pet, but this one is speaking to me. When I get an image of a dog in my mind, I'm thinking about that tongue hanging out and the dog is ready to go... come on.. lets' go.. hurry up.. i'm ready.. lets go :) This dog, however, isn't saying that to me. This dog may be sad. He (or she) may also be 'curious' about something outside the window... like the guy with the camera :D The ear seems perked up in such a way that the dog is intrigued by whatever is in his field of view... I can't really say much more here other than DAMN.... I wish this was part of my own portfolio :) Kudos on a great piece of photography... this is my fav of the week... = 10

Well..... Hmmm.... another pet photo... yadda yadda yadda yadda and so on and so forth...... Pet photos are so common and cliche these days, but every once in a while, someone will catch something great as you have here. This is an amazing photo. I want to give this photo a 10 so bad I can taste it. The only thing that is holding me back is your title :( I really wish this photo had some really creative title to go along with it like "Timid" or "My Hideout" or "Taking Cover" or " Cozy" or something else that integrates well with the mood that this photo conveys to me. This little dog looks frightened... I probably put too much emphasis on titles, but they are important to me. Great photo and good luck in this challenge... This is worthy of a ribbon :)

excellent shot... I love the softness and the glow of the light in this photo. I also have this little soft spot in my heart for these wooden mannequins. I have seen quite a few really great photos using these as props. I have to make a trip to the art supply store after work today and I may just pick up a couple of these for myself :) I have been wanting to try some of this.... good work :) = 9

good macro but the focus is just a bit soft for my taste. I also struggle with the challenge topic on this particular photo...

meets the challenge but doesn't create much 'interest' for me as a viewer...
