This is just such a super cute shot. I love it. Browsed your portfolio whilst i was here and i must say i love your animal shots. All very endearing. Also i enjoyed the diversity of styles and creativity that much of your work exhibits. You have some phenomenal nature shots too.

  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/04/2006 09:55:27 PM
I'm glad my kids didn't see this (just kidding). How long did this setup take? They've both obviously been drinking and the look of shock on their faces can only mean one thing- somebody is getting cheated on. Great photo- high score from me
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/04/2006 08:15:38 PM
Simply adorable. The rose petals are a nice touch. Good imagination and composition.

  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/03/2006 03:20:46 PM
Just for getting these two to pose this way gets you top marks. The composiion is pretty good as is the technical aspects.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/03/2006 06:35:17 AM

02/03/2006 05:32:00 AM
Funny 7, but I'll go up to 8 just for the sake of petals.

  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/02/2006 07:07:00 AM
doggystyle you mean :P
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/02/2006 05:24:34 AM
Granted, I'm no dog-shot hater, but this is wonderful. Oh what a pose... and getting them to look right into the camera as if they'd been caught! Gorgeous liquidity of their eyes, must be your lighting. Missionary pose vs. doggy makes it extra hilarious. This is certainly one of the best of the challenge, and I sure hope your final score reflects that. Thanks for the laugh. p.s. I'm guessing this is Shutterpug.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/01/2006 02:23:38 PM

02/01/2006 09:27:26 AM
That's hysterical. I'm wondering if you had to pose them, or just let them wrestle and caught the opportune moment. Poor little Puglies.....
