Very cute doggie. I'm a really sucker for these puppies pictures!!!

The cute look in doggies eyes is adorable and just says "give me a good score...ppp--ppp--ppp---leeeease" and the ear flapped over the arm of the chair is excellent in terms of photographic composition.

Nice tones, I think it's a good example of sepia tones and textures.

How sweet! Great choice in B&W. The blurry spot just below his/her eye is a little distracting but overall a great shot!

Personally, I think this is wonderful. More DOF wouldn't add anything at all.

Really great perspective. And processing, too. It's going to be fun to see what you do this year.

OMG that is so cute. Reminds me of our dog. Excellent soft capture, leaving only the eye in focus. Perfect toning. 10

Wonderful composition with the overhead view. Complemented nicely with the entry from the Sand challenge. One more and you have a lovely triptych to print, frame and hang. The tones are excellent.

I can see the dichotomy of opinion on the focus - maybe on that redundant space top left as well - but those yikkle pudgy toes just win it all...

Your in-challenge commenters are divided on the dof: some like it, some don't. I'm in the "wish there were more dof" camp, but it's a charming photo nonetheless. Should've scored higher in my opinion.

Darn I was on pins-and-needles for the 50mm shotz! This is great Ben. The low lighting really emphasizes the shadows in the sand. Beautiful composition, a real winner of a shot.
