There's a great softness about this photo, and the lighting is simply lovely. It's interesting to see a scene so commonplace photographed with such technical quality.

Oh, and Charlie's expression cracks me up. Yum, onion fingers!

Thank you so much for a warm welcome after a long, long break, the more that the picture was accidental and an outtake of a series I've been working on recently.
Yes, Charlie does look like he is going to end up in a stew (that made me laugh so hard) -scared and anxious , and my pose is leaving a lot to wish for but it was not planned like that - he just wouldn't budge from that spot ;)

What a sweet moment. I love the soft light. This makes me think of Thanksgiving preparations for some reason.

Nicely done. I keep going back and forth on whether I want it cropped in more from the left. But it does set the scene nicely. I think, if anything, I'd like it cropped down from the top to a letterbox type. Love the lighting. :)

Very much like the story telling aspect of the shot. An 8 from me. I wonder how it would look with just half of shot of the left side cropped off. The left side is what keeps all my interest.

Would have been better if Charlie was giving you a lick, he looks a little bit afraid.
There is so much to like about this image, I hope you score well with it.

Nice light and excellent clarity. Cute set-up. I don't think Charlie likes onions and he's probably not that crazy about raw potatoes, either LOL

sounds like a list of ingredients! no! don't cook Charlie- who is strangely backing away from you...
