The background blurring feels a little "photoshopped" but that's being nitpicky. The expressions on those dogs are incredible and I really like this shot overally.

Beautiful framing and tonality, but I find the texture rather distracting.

To Die Like a Butterfly

Thanks everyone for the feedback and encouragement. I too wish this shot had better focus and that I could have framed it a little differently so that the crinkle of the leaf (resembling a butterfly wing) was more evident. But that's the wonderful thing I've discovered in my short time in this group. Already, I'm a little more aware of such things as I'm composing the shot. I'm definitely benefiting from the challenge!
