Nice Cleo, I love the silhoutte of Lucky against a great sunrise. These are such sunset colors, but where you live it has to be sunrise over the ocean, lol. Nice reflection of him in the water. Good luck in the contest. Shirley

    Thank you so much Shirley, You are right. It is sunrise but most people think or my sunrise pictures are sunsets. It must be the dream everybody seams to have of sitting beneth a palm tree and watching the tropical sun sinking into the ocean.

This is a great shot of your dog and evenbetter of the water and sunset. Nice catch of the water's edhe with him standing so still, understanding the meaning of the moment.
Nice work,
annie

You really got LUCKY capturing Lucky on the beach.

Does he really want to take a bath or does he see something out at sea that has captured his interest. That tail tells me he has honed in on something.

Nice early morning capture of Lucky in silhouette blocking out just enough of the rising sun to cast a golden swath over the horizon.

Wonderful look in this composition that is technically sound in every aspect.

Thanks for the view around Quintana Roo.

    Thank you very much, Lucky was going to tracks his bath but was stopped in his tracks by a crab, a fish or something else he had seen in the water.
Comment from Mike Roberts


Very nicely executed shot, Cleo. I really like the way that you managed to align the dogs head to eclipse the evening sun. The dog is very alert and expressive, as if looking for signs of fish or other in the flowing water. The color and image is so nice. I really like it!

    Thank you so much Mike. You are exactly right. Lucky had spotted a fish or crab. Lucky for me. What ever he spotted it got his interest so I could take the photo.

This is a very interesting photo of the dog. I like how you have block direct sun behind his head and turned this into a beautiful silhouette with wonderful colors and details in the water. Well done. Thanks for sharing.

You captured Lucky's head in a perfect spot, he seem to be taking a water bath and sun bath. Wonderful silhouette and good technical excellence.
Thanks for sharing.

Very beautiful and thank you for your notes. It is wonderful to rescue dogs, we did too, and your dog reminds me of mine.
This sunrise is lovely. The pose of Lucky is just saying I am so lucky.

Nice photograph of your dog Lucky. I am glad he kept his sweet nature despite the cruelty. His silhouette looks great standing at the water's edge with the sun setting just behind his head. Good clouds on the horizon and gorgeous colors. Intial impact, clarity, lighting and composition are very good. Good luck in the contest. Thanks for sharing.

    Thank you so much for your kind review. I believe he is lucking at a crab or a fish, but it could be anything swimming in the ocean.
