This photo is truly impressive. First of all because of the little dog jumping through the ring of fire, but also because your stop action is very good. I also like how well the flames and smoke is captured, and because of the nicely softened background everything is standing out well.

Your photo is nice and sharp showing fine details both in the dog and the flames, and I also think the exposure is very good.

The format and framing is good and you have given the dog a bit of room to move into. A cute, lovely and well taken photo with a good DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.

This is an impressive live action animal shot. I can't believe the dog was willing to ignore the fire! This should definitely be a contender in the contest. Best of luck.

I am easily impressed by the most ordinary behavior of most animals but this is truly exceptional. A well timed shot with fine detail and great colors. Best of luck in the contest.

Great shot and nice action photo. Love the framing of the subject, and that you included the entire fire ring. Hope the dog wasn't burned. Looks like a close call. The color of the bokeh provides a nice background for the photo. Nice clarity on the subject and fire ring. Best of luck in the contest
