The detail is great! Very sharp. Congratulation on a great score and finish.

Thanks for the positive comments. I should have used photoshop. This was a candid shot without any post processing. I cropped off the backdrop because it was my office and not that attractive. Next time I will do more editing when I can.

6 - Nice portrait, but seeing as you have cropped the top anyway, going a little further down to eliminate the 'line' back left, as well as possibly a nudge rotate to 'straighten' a little, as well as cropping out the overexposed area on the right, make this even better in my opinion.

A wise and sweet face. A really nice closeup yet for me, I think just a bit less cropping would work better - give it more... "breathing room." 8

Nice clean, color is right, like the texture. (8) would have a perfect 10 but I have a personal thing about cut off head shotsâ€Â¦.

I love this dog's face. Seen it before and he always pulls on my heart strings. The eye is perfect. Lovely lighting. Maybe a smidge hot on the right of his nose.

I wish I could really see the left eye.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/13/2006 10:52:28 PM
very nice.. the crop is maybe a little too tight IMO. Would have liked to see all of the face. Beautiful dog.

The face of wisdom. Love it!

Beautiful dog! Great shot. Just wondering why you chose to crop it quite so much? Lighting a bit too much for one side????
  Photographer found comment helpful.

beautiful dog, and soulful eyes.

What a beautiful picture. The ONLY thing I have to say in forms of a critique, would be that I wish you would have used the Advanced Editing, and edited out the reflection in his eye. Other than that...wonderful job!

This is an emotional "10" for me. If I could, I would give it more! Goldens (with grey) make the best friends. Beautiful photo, beautiful dog!

Like the lighting except for wanting the dog's left eye a little more lit. Sweet expression.
