A beautiful dog and a very fine shot. It seems that nowadays they breed them too blonde and it is a treat to see one that has the coloration that mine had. A very nice pose with great details.

Many thanks for the nice review;he is the coloration of my first golden,a sweet girl.

Comment from Envision
The title is so fitting. The saturation emphasizes the golden color. I really like the snow on the fur. The profile makes for a nice pose, showing off the face and ears in a lovely way. Very sweet looking pup :)

Beautiful golden angel ! Golden retrievers are such wonderful dogs, they are full of love! This is well photographed with good focus, the image is clear, exposure is well managed, his colors and tones are natural, I love the snowflakes on his ( her) coat! Nice pose captured the gentle nature of a golden! Best wishes to you in the contest!
