There are a lot of things not quite right with this shot. The subject is too centered, vertically and horizontally. The crop of the body is weird. The ears flop awkwardly. The dog looks bored. The wallpaper is ugly.

The overall effect is a lot like the look of The Royal Tenenbaums.

Which is why it works so well. Two wrongs may not make a right, but it looks like a bunch of wrongs make for a great photo, or at least a distinctive style. 9

You cut off his paws! I'd suggest either pulling out so we see his forepaws or crop in tighter. I like the lighting and the shallow DOF. I even like his looking so far off camera.

whoa - what's that creepy skull thing in the right eye?
Nice job on the focus, but the light and shadows seem a bit harsh. Might've worked better if you were going for creepy with the skull, but it's (the skull) too subtle. And probably accidental.

Inside Out - from the bottom up

I'd like to see more light on the grain; it's kind of washed out. I like how the point of the grain goes right to the main structure.

Looks inspired by Magritte. I think the glass throws things off somehow, but you might be right by having something fill that space. Maybe a standing banana? Great concept, hope it does well.

Greek Perspective

Not only is there too much border, but I think the white in the border makes the whites in the picture look dirty, more of an off-white. Because of that, there's less contrast between the foreground white and the brown of the cliffs on the right and the hazy blue of the sea on the left. I like the picture, I just wish it were crisper.

There's something weird about the quality of this I can't quite pin down. Maybe it's too noisy? Grunged up a bit? Or is that the actual surface of the stone?

The Life Aquatic

I like the yellow on the dock, but that green seems a bit too much, especially on the rope(?) in the foreground.
PS: Where's Team Zissou?

Nice lines and perspective, but I think you've oversaturated the blue. You might want to go back and take all that blue out of the wood, especially in the shadowed railing on the right (once you no longer have to worry about the basic editing rules) and tone down the sky a bit, too.

Great capture! Love the soft focus on the figure and how the umbrella stands out from the white on the building. There's a great feeling of movement with her foot picked up.
