Good capture. No idea how far away this pup was (and am no expert in photography, obviously) however it seems as if the 'focal point' is sharpest on the sand(?)/earth below the face/neck/shoulders. The pup's right eye is fairly sharp, the left I assume is dark purely because of shadow (and even more difficult to adjust given the coloring(s)), but if the nose/whiskers and eyes, were all nice and sharp would make this even better in my opinion. Like the (seemingly) 'ground level perspective' and even the 'fore bokeh' effect of the sand(?) at the fore. Undecided if this would look 'better' with the top/water cropped out, but the color of it is nice and complements the pup and also gives more context, so who knows. edit:removed temporary note
