Lack of lighting on the left side of the dog's face has hidden some of the detail, and the composition also seems a bit off. Maybe you could have used a reflector to bring out more of the left side of the dog's face?

The only thing that instantly caught my eye is that the space between the text and the frame is uneven. Da Puppy Lovez probably shouldn't be that close to the frame.
Otherwise, it's a nice shot and really does well.

Cute puppy! Love the album title, too. Probably would do a little better if it were formatted more as an album/CD cover (ie squarish).

Greetings from the Critique Club -

Your details are pretty funny.

You met the challenge just fine. The reflection in the water offers good symmetry. And I will also add that it is nice to se ethat your horizon is level. So many images have a crooked horizon that hurts the impact of the image.

THere are a couple of issues I have that probably led to a low score. The focus is pretty soft. There seems to be a lack of detail - or at least a lack of sharp detail over the entire image. It almost feels as though it was cropped pretty tight from a larger image. If the issue was camera shake I belive that bumping up your ISO to 200 or 400 would have given you a faster shutter speed and then negated any camera shake you would have had. And the next issue is just the overall interest factor. It's ok but really has no wow factor to it that would pull in higher votes. I think these two issues are what hurt you most in scoring.

I see you havent been at DPC long but from your bio you have the right idea. Take some time and look at high scoring images, read the threads, study image descriptions, read the how to's and even ask members questions. This place is a treasure trove of information and you can find out cool ways to improve your work to score better here at DPC. But moost of all always try to have fun with what you are doing. This place isn't serious. We are all just vying for virtual ribbons. But you can learn alot, and make some cool friends at the same time. And seeing you are on a DPL team tells me you are already doing that.

Keep on shooting and good luck in the DPL!

Tim

Nice details. Focus is a bit off imho, but I like the nice detail on the rusty tools.
