interesting
03/17/2009 04:39:40 PM
Nice Composition..
03/17/2009 04:19:50 PM
Nice shot with lovely contrast between the blues and the dog's red gold coat. ( I have a Viszla, too, so I know this dog is in his element. )
03/17/2009 08:42:20 AM
I love the near centered-ness...it really heightens the sense of isolation.
03/17/2009 07:27:44 AM
Cute shot of one of our 4 legged friends.
03/16/2009 10:29:58 PM
Good shot and idea. The dog is a bit to dark but still nice.
03/16/2009 10:24:13 PM
Awesome shot. My dog would never stand that still. Great job.
03/16/2009 07:01:52 PM
Lighting bad (talk to God). Image good. (try to fix lighting with shadow/highlight?)

"So throw the ball already"
wonderful humor
03/16/2009 08:13:13 AM
Ligthing seems a bit harsh.
03/16/2009 04:09:47 AM

Poor mutt. How'd it turn out?
03/15/2009 05:02:04 PM
What do you mean, "come!"?
03/15/2009 03:13:43 PM
Nice snapshot
03/15/2009 12:04:08 PM
Cute shot. Looks like the dog doesn't want to really jump in.
03/15/2009 12:04:07 PM
fun capture - 6

Interpretation of Topic: Great Choice!
Photography: You have to get the shot at just the right time, and you did.
Viewers Reaction: Beautiful.
03/14/2009 08:01:45 PM
Centred composition is not a good idea in this instance
03/14/2009 07:36:04 PM
Cute! Brilliant blues but the harsh sunlight is not helping the photo.
03/14/2009 10:38:12 AM
Poor pooch. I think the dead center framing of the subject weakens the shot.
03/14/2009 07:07:46 AM
the dog has an expression of "ohhhhhh bugga"
what a get tho
03/14/2009 05:15:18 AM
is he afraid to get wet, the water frames him nicely
03/13/2009 08:42:51 PM
Nice!
03/13/2009 07:22:14 PM
chuckle..chuckle...this is great...need I say more...
03/13/2009 03:56:35 PM
lol great photo, priceless.
03/13/2009 12:21:39 PM
Maybe its because I am tired, and not thinking straight, but when I saw this picture, and read the title, I started thinking of the song by The Police, "sending out an S.O.S".
03/13/2009 10:39:16 AM
Hope someone rescued him!
03/13/2009 10:36:49 AM
lol looks like he is confused
03/13/2009 07:20:12 AM
Oh oh. He looks stranded.
03/13/2009 06:31:20 AM
hard to control the light in this situation, a little fill on the viszla woud have helped really pop this image
03/13/2009 05:31:01 AM
great subject, nice colors, but light on the dog is too harsh
03/13/2009 03:06:08 AM
lol, this is very amusing :)
03/13/2009 01:53:47 AM
poor dog, Humorous catch, 6
03/12/2009 09:56:12 PM
The old saying...between a rock...
03/12/2009 05:11:54 PM
What a great shot!
03/12/2009 12:10:39 PM
haha i love dogs on islands
03/12/2009 12:06:39 PM
This is cute. Talented pup to balance like that!
03/12/2009 11:16:09 AM
Now what do I do?
03/12/2009 09:43:55 AM
Great colors, too centered to my taste.
03/12/2009 08:45:34 AM
I'm a dog owner so I love this one! On the plus side, love the deep deep blues, on the "could stand improvement side" I would love to see even more depth to this shot, so a lower perspective and a higher f/stop on the shot would work great IMHO.
03/12/2009 07:49:25 AM
cool shot, i like the composition and colors. nice
03/12/2009 04:54:46 AM
Very interesting and unusual. Its one of those pictures that you just cant make happen it just does. Nice detail and colors.
03/11/2009 09:26:05 PM
Now there's a predicament. What a keeper!
03/11/2009 09:20:40 PM
LOL. This has the best "aw shucks" value I've seen so far in the challenge :-)
03/11/2009 05:36:58 PM
LOL 7
03/11/2009 03:52:51 PM
interesting shot but really tough lighting to work with. A polarizer would help with the glare on the rock but there's not a lot you can do about the harsh shadows.
03/11/2009 12:02:30 PM
Nice capture. The color of the dog has a good contrast with the blue water.
03/11/2009 04:08:33 AM
lol
03/11/2009 03:33:36 AM
Fun stuff. And good use of color for the subject.
03/11/2009 01:25:36 AM
haha, great capture !!!
03/10/2009 11:28:47 PM
cool capture
03/10/2009 11:27:12 PM
HAhaha, how did he get out there?
03/10/2009 08:47:23 PM
poor boy looks a bit bewildered out there
03/10/2009 08:17:29 PM
A classic. LOL.
