This is Patches, almost 7 1/2 months old now. Still just my lil puppy, though.

Yikes, Patches might end up in the Top 10 here. I guess I'll see when I wake up in the morning.
Let me try to recall those editing steps:
- Process from JPEG
- Rotate, crop, Topaz sharpen
- Nik Color EFEX, I want to say "tonal contrast"
- Some minor cloning-out of bg elements
Looking at the JPEG, I think I must have run Noiseware to clean up the sky a bit, too.
Thanks for the great comments and votes!

Yes, I do believe a 4th place finish works for me. Patcher-ino, you get some extra bacon treats tonight.
lol @  Bear_Music and steve100...
Bear: You're gonna get dinged for that towel!

steve: Man, that towel sucks. |

Great lighting on the dog - can't quite decide whether the surroundings are slightly distracting - or help contextualise the situation . . cool angle on the dog which helps lift it out the norm slightly, I guess the only thing that would have finished this for me would have been a catch light in it's eyes.
Still a striking shot though that should do well.

Excellent quality, impressive.
(and you're one of the rare in this challenge seeming to know what ios fill flash !). Best in show indeed, deserves a ribbon. |

Mighty Dog was relaxing on the back deck and enjoying some well-earned R&R, playing Trash the Rag, when his supersonic hearing detected a distant cry of distress.
Adorable. |

| Really well done. You'll probably get quibbled on the towel, but I sorta like it, it's an in-your-face dose of reality :-) |
