Thank you Galia!

Comment from Envision
He is so cute! I like how he flattens himself out as he relaxes. He looks like he's exhausted with fun! You can just see in his expression that he is happy.

A nice looking dog in a great pose that tells the story of the ball game and the exertion he put into it. Judging from his white face I would think he is getting up in years.

Good afternoon Pat. Most of the time I don't really care for the single subject closeup. Well, mine are of course excluded. But this one brought an immediate smile to my face. Yes that animal is resting and yes there definitely is a smile on his face. Composition is correct of course. What a pleasure to see. Thanks for sharing this event. Reasons for my five star vote.

Pat,
A beautiful picture of your beloved Golden Retriever Fisher taking a breather on the beach after chasing that Ball? Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Nice picture of this cute dog. The picture is clear and the focus is good. The lighting is very good too. I like that it's up close , makes a greater impact. Nicely done. Good luck to you!

Looks as if he deserves a rest. Apparently he has himself exhausted running after his ball. I like his pose and especially his tongue flapping. The portrait is well exposed. The colors look realistic. Fisher is well placed into the frame. The composition is balanced.

Love how at ease and happy your dog looks in this picture. Im guessing you have a senior pup and I love nothing more than seeing the senior out enjoying life! A very nice in the moment capture.

Cool,Pat! : )
Fisher is a handsome Canine indeed and your photo of him takin' a break on the damp sand with his ball in easy reach is lots of fun to see!
I'm wonderin' where Oliver is,of course,but I'm liking this 'Good Show' of a picture a LOT!
