FROM THE CRITIQUE CLUB
Hello, Patricia,
First of all, I'm not sure how well I'll be able to write about your picture, because I've never seen the movie from your title. My biggest concern as far as meeting the challenge would be that the picture doesn't necessarily bring to mind the movie, even for those who have seen it.
This is a good picture of your dog. I like your composition, and I like the way the dog is looking at you. I like it that there is no extra border.
Light and colours are very good. Focus is just a tad on the soft side (the eyes look a bit soft - always try to focus on the eyes, which I find rather hard using a digital camera, because on a little screen like the digital cameras have it's hard to see if the eyes are perfectly in focus or not).
Is that a bug on the beagle's nose? I think the picture would be improved just a little if that were not there (I know, I'm being picky). Also, I think your background is quite beatiful, appropriately blurry, and the branch by the dog's paw is well placed, but there is a 2x4 or fencepost (or something like that) sticking out right next to the dog but in the background - I think (and again, this is just my opinion) that the picture would be better if that were not in it. Details, details, I know.
To sum up, this is a nice picture of your dog. It's pleasing to look at, but it could be improved with a tad sharper focus and with attention to a couple details. It meets the challenge, but not "head on" or in a "hit you in the face" manner, and thus probably went somewhat unnoticed.
Hope this helps a little. Keep up the good work!

| great photo of your dog...looks like something bit him/her on the nose. An addition of a cat would have made the photo perfect. |
