There's a lot of graininess or posterization on her hood and cape that does not come off well for me. I do like the selective desat effort. I think it is effective.

a sleeping dog does not = play. Nice capture but not for this challenge.

I like this. The expression on the face, with the toungue out is priceless (my dog does similar when really tired).
The paw annoys me a little. Its just hanging there. Would have been great to tuck it up on the towel (but that may have distured your dog). This also would have allowed you to keep more of the coat on its back in focus.
However, still like it for the expression

Gosh he looks all tuckered out, doesn't he. Lovely shot.

Let me see, no hair and a goatee, Jason?

the very strong lighting here along with the piercing stare makes me think not of sadness but of anger, like you are thinking about all the trolls voting this image down!

Seriously though I like it, although I am sure if this challenge was in advanced editing (like it should have been...) you would have then toned down the ear in the left of the frame a bit and the shiny bits on the face.

Nice work. 7

Looks too saturated in the reds to me.

Her face have a great sharpness. I don't understand the selective saturation/desaturation though. Her eyes are captivating, I would done a tighter crop around the face, that's where the story is in this shot.
