 I went to the beach to take pictures for the pet portraits and coincidentally got this! It is most definately an "accidental" letter, and that's exactly what the challenge asked for! The sun was setting and it was simply a magical evening. Fingers are crossed...

I wouldn't be surprised if your long title hurt you. I think the image speaks for itself.

This to me should've gotten a ribbon. This photo was robbed. Seems when you have an animal in your picture anymore it gets voted down.

This is a great pet portrait as well as a nice accidental letter. :) The dog obviously had a great time. I like the sparkle in his eye. What settings were you using in camera? JPEG, WB etc?

A little harsher processing than I'd like on the dog, but what an innovative and appealing shot for the challenge! A favorite.

Great candid (or was this a really good dog obedience school?). Lighting is golden. Front right paw in forward motion. Excellent entry.

Well, if this ain't accidental, nothing is. I love the late sunlight. Good DOF. The crop is too rectangular for me though. I'd have cropped off some of the top. 10.
