My cooperative Aussis again -- quite a rainy day but she was willing to get wet for my art :)

Removed the color, cropped, burned some of the background and her white fur, cropped out some of the rain drops, adjusted contrast, resized.

Yay Theresa!! Top 10 finish!

As an avid Aussie fan this dog always takes top honors from me. From my experience with Aussies the expression of this dog says nothing less than extreme intelligiance. This is not only a fun dog to photograph, it's a great dog to have as a companion and a loyal friend.

Thanks for all your comments (and for not getting on my case for being able to recognize my dog!) My top ranked finish (12) to date!

For JasonPR and the others who enjoyed the shot -- you've made my week (and it's only Monday)!

For the folks that didn't think it was raining -- yup, quite heavily (check out the drops that show up on the top of her head) Not a picture of a picture but a picture of consentration.

I like the way he/she looks a bit like a drawing in this. IMHO I would have fixed the perspective to straighten the window frame.

Very intense look in the dog's eyes. Was it really raining?

Very nice lloking dog! Somehow the effect of the window has been lost... almost as if a differnt picture of the dog was placed on this side of the window.

I love the crispness of this photo and the contrast/balance, it's well composed and really gives the sense of a window being a barrier and as well as allowing a glimpse of what you're being kept from

This is a really good shot. It's sorta like an intimate portrait. You are catching something the dog is doing naturally, and he isn't focused on the camera. B & W is an excellent choice here as well. Well done.

Shame about the burnt out highlights. Great shot, good detail.

Wonderful tones and capture of the dogs character. Being that I don't see any rain drops on the window glass I think you should have used another title.

Nice use of monochrome - 7

What a face. I love to see people submit GOOD pet shots. I hate how people bitch (no pun intended) and moan about it all the time. Dogs can do no wrong by me, only photographers that think any photo of their dog is good. You get a 10 from me because this really is good and quality photography like this should never be frowned upon no matter how cliche the subject.

This is agreat shot, looiks good in B&W, think it'll look not as good in colour.I like that the window isn't centred or parallel, the angled look add to the shot. Great expression on the dog, nice clear eyes too. Well done!

Nice shading & contrasts.

Great job in black and white. Focus on the dog's eyes and fur perfect. The hint of water on the glass adds a great touch.

like the soft focus...not a fan of pet photos ...but this works like the b&w

Good looking dog, but I would have preferred color. Well focused, nice DOF, and all other decisions are very nice. -7
