How cute. Dogs are the most wonderful creatures. Great composition and focus and good artist notes. Love the snaggletooth look.

Comment from Heartfelt Annie
Excellent clarity here of your Bertie!! Great job with the light and having her ball and it being red really added interest. Not to say having her paw on it...it's mine!!! lol An adorable looking pup. Composition is good. A thought...maybe have kept the tips of her ears in the frame??? Not enough for me to deduct a well taken photo though. Enjoyed Bertie. Annie

Comment from Anne
What a beautiful Boston Terrier. We used to have one a long time ago. I like the way you took this so close up of her. I like the way she is looking at you. I like the way she is guarding her ball too. An excellent picture. Good luck in the contest.

What a great capture! I know what you mean since we have two and about to get the third one next week. This has a great chance to win the contest. it is surely a 6.

Love the expression you captures. You must have paid her off to pose like that! Looks like a professional pose of a ballplayer! Great cupture and great focus and layout.

This is a terrific shot of Bertie! I love her bewildered expression. The button like eyes are endearing. Fine composition. Good luck in the contest!

Comment from galwes
I love this image. Nice composition*. he color, clarity, sharpness, background are all excellent. What an expression. Wish I had a sixth star for this one.

*Perhaps not cropping so tightly on the top and showing all the ears would be a good idea. What do you think? Kudos

Thank you so very much! The ears was cut when it was shot and I have no more. I still like the expression.

Comment from PhotoVision
Great photo. Excellent focus, so much detail in that lovely face. Nice catch light in the eyes, liking the tongue. She's a bit of a poser isn't she!

Great pet photo. It is so hard to capture them. They move around so much. Great focus. Great expression on Bertie. Thank you for sharing.
