I chickened out on entering something that totally met the challenge in a moody BW and instead prepped this DPC-friendly sunset silhouette conversation of the same pair.
-2/3 EV.

Contrast, warming, unsharp mask. Then smashed the crap out the saturation without destroying the histogram.

LOL!!! LOVE the explanation. And despite the DPC-friendliness of it (handily confirmed by the 7th place and excellent score), it is still a very fun shot. I shall go look to see if you posted the moody B&W somewhere... (And thank you kindly for your nice words on mine - very much appreciated.)
I elected to use a rating table to decide on what value to assign during voting.
Here’s the table:
1 No Animal/People Interaction
2 Slightly Appealing, but no Animal/People Interaction
3 Moderately Appealing, but on Animal/People Interaction
4 Greatly Appealing, but no Animal/People interaction
5 Not Appealing, but possessing Animal/People Interaction
6 Slightly Appealing and possessing Animal/People Interaction
7 Moderately Appealing and possessing Animal/People Interaction
8 Greatly Appealing and possessing Animal People Interaction
9 Better than #8, and caused an audible sigh
10 Better than #9, and would likely declare it a favorite
Nice capture, not sure about the centered horizon but there's nice balance between the man and dog. Looks like the man it talking on a cell phone which detracts from the image for me. Maybe the action shot of the man in the act of throwing would have added something. Still I like it.
