Very cute photo. Love the expression on the girl's face.

Not sure how I feel about the selective coloring in this one because the coloring doesn't seem to stay in the confines of the dog's clothing.

A different angle or a shift of the shapes in the frame would have contributed to the composition of this concept, and the use of a diffuser or bounce flash would have softened the light, reducing the glare of the tobacco pouch. The highlight on the pipe is nice.

The glare on the tobacco pack is quite harsh, a more diffused light might have been better; I'm not sure about the angle either, it sort of feel to me like looking at a wooden panelled wall, not a table and the things are somehow stuck to the wall sideways. I can't stand smoking and I don't care for smoking shots so a bit of personal bias on my part here but the subject really quite unappealing. Focus and colours are Ok.

Something strikes me as 'weird' about this but I'm not really sure what...could be the angle the photo was taken. (no vote)

Comment by stphq:
very uninteresting angle, and seems strange to have chosen this angle when it has been one thats caused a harsh light on the tobacco packet, drawing the eye to the packet and away from the main subject. I don't know what your chosen light source was though of course.

Different take on the subject. I like that!

Technically: Kinda a funny angle. A little lower might be beneficial. The flash also kinda ruined it. A long exposure with a tripod might have given better color, and no flash reflections.
