too grainy IMO

4 - Pretty grungy feel to this which is likely deliberate. Bit too vertical overall in my opinion and the dog is not 'starring' enough.

To me, a portrait has controlled lighting and setting. This shot looks too green, there is no detail in the face of the dog, and I don't think the door makes a good background. This shot tells a story, but it is not a portrait IMO.

Virgil isn't spoiled at all, is he?

Cute picture, but the grainy quality and yellowish lighting don't really work for me. Was your ISO set quite high?

Great pose and composition. (Better if door jamb were perfectly vertical, and yellow greeny cast in background lightened or warmed. Picture deserves it).

Seems a little grainy. A cleaner background also helps to make it more of a portrait then a snap shot.

Nice choice of cropping, but the saturation is a little too overdone for me.

grainy on my monitor ... the BG isn't very appealing either ...

Might look better if it was just the bone showing

the colors seem off on this photo - possibly due to white balance issues
