Gimme Some Candyby
patio127Comment by Neil: Greetings from the critique club.
I was glad to get this to critique. Not only is it a cute photo, I have very little I have to criticize!
I don't usually comment on score, but I'll say that this is underrated. This probably has more to do with subject bias than anything else. Kids, dogs, flowers. Some people just vote low and never look back.
Aesthetics: Very nice shot, cute subject, great head tilt. Composition is good except that you would have been better off with some space on the left and not cutting of his ear. A square crop is perfect for this--so you would need more space on the left and less on the right. More background blur or a simpler background would have been good, but it's not a major issue here.
Technical. Sharpness is excellent. Tones are generally very good. One issue is the area of overexposure/processing burnout on her head and a little possible burnout on her fur on the sides of her nose.
Nice shot, cute dog. What else is there to say! Hope what little I had to say critically is of some help.
