This is a face that you have to care about to see the real beauty in. When you look at the individual parts you come up with an Ernest Borgnine face and no one would say he is handsome or pretty but you do get to witness a great talent and spark of a great personality. Her ball skills certainly display both. Great tonal variations of the grays, the intense eyes and the wrinkles are all well captured for a charming portrait.

Well done willie: The close up with Excellent focus and in BW is super. The eyes want to jump right up at you. And the ball in the mouth gives it a real personal touch, excellent composition in all ways, John

What a cute photo you have here of your really cute little dog (is it a pug?). I like how you've changed it to a B&W image, IMO B&W photos, when done right and applied to the right photo, add more vibrance to the shot than color can at times. Excellent camera work with your framing and clarity, and the ball in the dogs mouth makes it that much more adorable.

Willie!

This is one of the best dog portraits that I have ever seen!

I just love everything about it and can't fault the image in any way at all.

Love the tilt of Gidgets head and how you have managed to get down the here eye level that is very important in pet photography like this.

Love the eye detail and the catch light in them, adorable facial expression and I love the ball in here mouth and looks totally mad with enjoyment as she is playing with it, fabulous work.

Aww. What a cutie.
A great capture. You have caught the texture of her hair nicely. A beautiful job on the eyes. Good composition and presentation. This should be perfect for the contest.

Gidget is beautiful. Looks like she's having fun with her toy. Love the position of her head and the fullness of the frame. Could you possible clone out the line in her eye? It looks like a piece of hair. Best wishes for the contest, she is as cute as she can be.

I love it! What a precious face which you have captured brilliantly. The focus is spot on. Nice B&W conversion. Perhaps you could crop it a little tighter on the right side so that the eye stays focused on the pup and not the negative space on the right. I think you have captured her joyful and playful soul very nicely. I just want to hug her! Well done - good luck with your club!
