 First challenge entry - Nothing more comfortable than my Bassett Hound, Tucker, when he's crashing on the couch! He was such a good subject. I kept firing the flash in his face while he was trying to take a nap. I was just trying to test some modifications to my Lightsphere PJII when I realized this might be a shot that would work for the Comfort Challenge. I almost pulled it at the end but glad I didn't. Very pleased with the results. Thanks to all who voted and commented.

Minimal editing.
1) Adjust White Balance
2) Curves adjustment
3) Crop
4) Convert RAW file to sRGB
5) Add a border (Stroke)
6) Resize via Save for web in CS2

I like this one a lot. A lot of feel and emotion in it. Makes me feel comfortable and lazy to look at it. Very nicely done. 8

Focus is good on the eye, but I'd like to see one in focus from the end of his/her nose to the eyes. Dogs are always a favorite.

Good perspective, and like the crop. Depth of field a bit too narrow for my taste. 5
