Love the shallow depth of field and the bright colors.

Nice depth of field and angle. Definately makes you feel like you are part of some big turn he is making. Very technically solid. A little dark and soft in the eyes, but a good shot!

The tilt here gives this photo an extra boost of fun and movement. Nicely handled movement and dof.

The subject stands out as the background is blurry and the person is sharply in focus. The colors pop in this shot as well.

Needs some impact. Initial impression is, yes, it's custard pie.

Wonderful photo. You really captured the essence of Goldens. That keen attention - probably a ball or a stick?

Composition: Well composed. The eyes are on the upper thirds line. I like the fact that he is turning and you can see his out of focus body in the background giving the photo some movement and emotion. The only thing that bothers me a little is the crop at the top. That crop only leaves a tiny bit out. I would suggest either cropping tighter or looser. That little bit missing detracts a little.

Good depth of field keeping the attention on the face.

This is a photo to be proud of.

In regards to post processing some suggestions might be to desaturate the green in the upper right just a little so it does distract from the main subject. And the image, in particular the face, nose and whiskers, could use some sharpening. There is a fabulous line that draws me from his eyes down to his nose, but at the nose it is not quite as sharp. Sharpening would also help the face stand out more against the blurred background.

Very nice job. Keep up the good work. I would have given this at least a 6.

Nice shallow depth of field and actually tilting your phtograph in a way that looks natural and interesting.
