Nicely developed shadows and wonderful lines. Cheers.

Love the way the dog is facing, and how the 'dunes' are spread out to portray a sense of 'territory out there to explore'.

Amazing how the tiny specs of snow have shadows, as well as some of the fur.

I like the subject and well done on the exposure here, particularly for snow. Might have improved it a bit if the dog was a bit more in the left side of the frame and the shadow towards the middle.

I like the tones and conversion of this shot! I personally find the untouched snow and then the dog/shadow very dramatic.

Reminds me of that video of the dog romping through drifts of powder. Very strong image, a bit over-sharpened.

There's a handful of "things" that may have led to the low score on this within the context of the challenge it was in. The visible camera lens, the degree of difficulty, the "Wow" factor or lack thereof (compared to the top finishers in this challenge), etc... The lack of comments does make it more difficult to decipher the mindset of the voters on this one. :-/ I can't help but wonder if the title may have diminished the impact some...like the impact or important feature is supposed to be the 'twilight' piece of the comp? Just thinking out loud. :-)

Why do I even mention the above? ... I was poking around your profile page (after you left a nice comment on one of my images today - Thanks!) and this photo stood out for some reason. I wanted to get a closer look. It's funny, when you see this shot outside the context of the challenge it can make you wonder - why? What's going on? The POV with the mirror causes the viewer to pause to get oriented. The camera lens in the comp also begs the question of why? Feels even slightly voyeuristic - like the viewer caught someone spying on something.

One last minor item (well, maybe not so minor)...I like the way you carefully crafted the comp on this with the placement of the mirror in the frame - whether it was composed that way or cropped to fit - it works well to balance the image.

The color tones really make this picture. Good detail and wonderfully done.

Fuzzy, was he?

Beautiful photo. The title doesn't do it justice...
