First Impressions: Very noble....

-------------------------------------------------------------

Composition: Composition is pretty strong on this shot. However, I think I'd like a bit more free space below his chin.

Subject: Subject is very noble and majestic when cast in this light. And that coming from someone who's very pro-Cat/anti-Dog. There is almost a weary aged look there as well. Like he's tired but at the same time comfortable with his responsibility in life.

Technical (Colour, focus, and light): This is where I have to knock you a bit. The sharpness is just lacking a bit here. Focus seems somewhat off and blurry, I'd attribute this to you're using a f/2.5 aperature creating a very shallow depth of field.

-------------------------------------------------------------

To improve?: Raise it up to like 5.6 or higher and you're gain some sharpness and a deeper depth of field.

Summary: Nice shot, room for improvement...and a seemingly very nice dog. And that from a cat lover!

-------------------------------------------------------------
