Comment by MinAlex:
pretty good pic except for the snow being overexposed, expresses the theme nicely and the title certainly captures the spirit of it

Happy, smiling dog looks as if he 'let's go' every chance he gets. Lovely image.

From critique club.

The expression is really sad. The image is not defocused - it's just the fish moving (I think). Too bad that I did not see the author's comment at the voting time. If I knew the reason for 'sadness' I would gave this image higher score.

On the composition I would expect to see the fish eye in the middle of the frame and, probably, some side-lighting to get reflections from the scales, but that's difficult in the restaurant...

Image quality/ focus are poor. Image lacks punch/ interest.
