Boy is he having fun! Love his expression. The color and composition are excellent here. I always like a photo that can show movement too. Nice job.

I love this photo and the knowledge this animal is having as much fun as you are.
Good timing and settings with spray caught like mixed sized diamonds to
long continues spray.
Excellent take from the shadow to the animal outline by low light rays from the left.
Some might suggest
'flash-fill" but that in
my opinion is personnel
choice.

    Thank you very much for your kind review and your input. I personally avoid using flash in outdoor photography in order to emphasize the reality of the scene. That of course is my personal opinion. I this case a fill flash would not have worked anyway since the dog was to far away. It only looks like a close up because I cropped more than 50% of the photo.

Great entry for the contest. Lovely capture of this gorgeous dog enjoying playing in the water. Love how you caught the spray as he splashes through the waves. Excellent lighting and focus. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

Talk about SPLASH! WOW! I don't think it's possible to have any more splash going on. Tis is a GREAT image for the contest! Love ALL of the action going on. This dog looks like he's having the time of his life! I think you have a VERY GOOD chance of winning the contest. GOOD LUCK! :o) Helvi

    Thank you very much for your kind review. Nobody throw him the stick. He just found it. The ocean brought it from somewehere else.

Great take of your four legged friend. The way the dog is positioned is marvelous ( really awesome) . The waves rushing in behind him are a great touch. This would be a great contest entry for SPLASH. Any way fantastic take

Very nice contest entry. Focus is super, with sharp detail down to the eyes and water droplets. You did great with the stop action and the perfect splash. Lighting and composition are spot on. Well done and good luck.
