Oshie is a cute pup! Nice job focusing on his eye but keeping his whole face in focus. I think the photo could have been improved though if more attention had been paid to the background. The BBQ, blanket, etc really do detract from an otherwise nicely posed and well exposed image.

Cute models.
I think your image would have worked better with different lighting...the white balance is off. And the poor puppies chin is cut off! Keep trying!

Freddy sure is cute! I wish the picture wasn't so grainy though....especially his face. It looks to me like it was oversharpened to compensate for being a bit out of focus.

Cute hat. I'm not sure that the background works for me, and the lighting is a bit harsh.

What a pretty cat.

I like the black and white, really like that you went with a black background. Your whites are overexposed though.

Pretty cat, what unusual markings. Little too much green in this shot for my liking, and it is made worse with the green border! I sometimes wonder if colours look different on different monitors since to me it is a very lime green?

What a happy looking dog...great capture of that smile! My only suggestion would be to be sure that the eyes are in focus. In this shot the nose is better focused than they eyes which I think takes away from the image overall. Hope that helps.

Are there veggies in that camera?

Ha! What a cutie! I like that his (her?) eye is in focus, but do find that too much of the nose is OOF. While I can appreciate that getting everything in focus that close up is challenging, I think it would have made for a better shot.

Nicely composed. I wish the cats face were in focus though...the eyes just don't jump out at me because they are not sharp enough. The focus seems to be on the cats shoulder?

Pretty cat, reminds me of one of my girls. I like what you were trying to accomplish with the lighting although it might be a tad too bright on the left side. The shot is out of focus too much, which is a huge pet peeve of mine. The eye is almost in focus and the rest is totally out of focus. I would have preferred a very sharp eye and focused face.....but that's just me! Good luck in the challenge.
