Beautiful dog. Good cropping, sharpness and catch light in the eyes. I wonder how she would have shown up on a lighter background? 7

4 - Like the colors. Perhaps intentionally dark, but too dark in my opinion - especially around the eyes. Background dominates too much. More refined crop and perhaps a nudge rotate up on the right.

Pretty dog. The dark green backround with the black dog does not do this any justice as the overall composition seems dark.

great shot. My 5 year old has been a type 1 diabetic for a few years now so I love to see images like this. It shouldnt be so taboo. great job.

I can see where you're going with this one, but the unlit dog fades into the grey-black, wrinkly background. Very nice concept, though! :)

Thank you for great comments. I was not sure how well it would place but I am happy with the end result. This was only my second time working with lighting and trying to get a well controlled outcome. I am not that creative a person so I most likely will not score well untill I can develop some sort of creative style. My main point with this was to work from a technical aspect and create an image with some positive things such as lighting and working with DOF to create a focal point.

Comment by Cordelia:
It looks like a 'clinical' image. The title is needed, though, to understand the purpose of the medication 'portrayed'. Motiv, subdued colours, the cool plain background, and composition indicate a life depending on medicine, a life we don't like. But still, this is life too. And those in need of 'Humalog' have no choice, it is their life-support.
Composition: Subjcet off-centre, simple, clear lines, one vertical on the LH side, one diagonal from RH side to lower LH corner. Good DOF with end of the syringe, i.e. instrument/action, blurred. Very thoughtfully created composition.
