Comment from Nelia
LOL! Cleo, your title is so perfectly matched to this image! She reallllly looks as though she is feeling very sorry for herself not being able to go out and play! You captured her in such a perfect pose, even her mouth looks like she is sulking :O( Your depth of field here is just right. A cute dog and a great entry for the contest!

Thank you so much Nelia, for your uplifting review.
She is sulking. Really. Believe it or not: That dog is able to smile and sulk.

Comment from Paparazzi
She looks so sad as she watches vigilantly for her master to return.

You really captured a great shot of the curly b&w puppy and her emotions as well.

Solid composition as you moved close enough to let us take it all in.

Would you tell me what you think is wrong with the photo and how it could be improved.

Cleo,

I found nothing wrong with your photo. I did give you a 5-star review, the highest in my rating bag.

No it was 4 star that's why I ask.
Don't worry about. I just was curious.

Cleo,

I've been writing quite a few reviews in a row this afternoon, and I may have accidentally hit a "4" when I meant a "5." I went back and checked "5," so there should be a revision. At least I hope so. Your work was deserving of a "5," and I hope the change I made, takes.

Don't worry about it!
Even if there is no revision. I'm not hanging up on stars. The reviews are much more important.
Thank you a lot for going through the trouble.
Cleo

C,

What's fair is fair. The review I wrote was reflective of 5-stars.

Cracks me up right off the bat. What a face. Poor neglected thing they sure can put on the pitiful. Great framing, composition and lighting on this one really captures the essence of the pet

Comment from Desborokev
In some ways the dog looks unreal. Cracking portrait of the dog with great technique in securing the sharpness in the eyes. Black and white dog with its paws up looks adorable and sadly for the dog,a bit too longingly.

Thank you, I appreciate your generous review very much. I swear this dog is real and sad only for the moment. She is the lady friend of my dog and can't come out to play because her owners aren't home at the moment.

Comment from Smurphgirl
This is just too cute! What a lovely expression on this little guy's face. Great detail and absolutely perfect title. I like this a lot. Good job.

Comment from gypsywoman
This is adorable! Her eyes look so forlorn - you can tell she really wants to be with you! I love the sunlight reflecting off of her wet nose and her eyes. She has such cute markings on her face. This is a great capture. Good luck in the contest.
