From the Critique Club:
Wonderful photo. You really captured the essence of Goldens. That keen attention - probably a ball or a stick?
Composition: Well composed. The eyes are on the upper thirds line. I like the fact that he is turning and you can see his out of focus body in the background giving the photo some movement and emotion. The only thing that bothers me a little is the crop at the top. That crop only leaves a tiny bit out. I would suggest either cropping tighter or looser. That little bit missing detracts a little.
Good depth of field keeping the attention on the face.
This is a photo to be proud of.
In regards to post processing some suggestions might be to desaturate the green in the upper right just a little so it does distract from the main subject. And the image, in particular the face, nose and whiskers, could use some sharpening. There is a fabulous line that draws me from his eyes down to his nose, but at the nose it is not quite as sharp. Sharpening would also help the face stand out more against the blurred background.
Very nice job. Keep up the good work. I would have given this at least a 6.

| I prefer seeing animals doing what comes naturally. This is an extremely natural shot and it adds a dimension lacking in some of the other submissions in this challenge. The orange of the fur contrasts nicely with the green background. There is a sense that this animal could just walk out of the screen and love on you. If I could vote on this one, I'd give it a 10, but since I can't, I will just log it in my favorites. Thank you for sharing this wonderful shot. |

| Its all in the eyes, and you have captured it right at the right moment. S/He is not loking alert, or sleepy or tired, you have seemed to have got the look of wiseness and knowledge. The ears seem to want to rubbed , the sharp details are there. Would be a 10 bar the tip of the nose seems a little out of focus. |
