A sighthound just having spotted something amongst some ruins in winter. The chimney could be a sentinel, too, but is losing its battle against the encroaching woods.
PP - slight crop, tonemapped dog and chimney (pregamma 0.697, mantiuk method, contrast mapping 0.1, saturation factor 1.029, detail factor 1) and merged at 20% transparency, white balance, levels, dodged/burnt dog a little, cloned out some brighter branches above her head, desaturated her shadow, burnt background, gradient blue-grey filter on top to make it less yellow, resized, sharpened, added border. |

Poor doggy had to spend his day outside on a snowy day. This would work better with a more blurre bg. |
