Goodness what a very handsome boy!!! This clear, beautifully posed photo just might win the contest! This beauty looks like half German and Australian Shepherd -- what is the breed?

    Thanks so much for your excellent critique and high rating, I appreciate it greatly! Mr. D is a purebred Blue Heeler, compact at 30 lbs and standing about 30 inches high. He is beautiful, thanks again!

What a gorgeous photo of this beautiful coloured dog. The eyes wow.

The details and clarity are dead on and I love the background

He certainly is a beautiful dog with a very serious look on his face for this photo.

Great shot. Good luck in the contest but I do not think you need luck as you have so much talent with you photography and edits.

I look at the picture of your dog and see that you have captured the visage of a faithful, obedient, willing to please and loving family dog. You must be both proud and happy to have in your family. His eyes tell the whole story. Very nice Jodi. Ray

That's a beautiful portrait dog! Mr. D is indeed handsome and I think you captured his personality really well. Remarkable lighting and colors! The eyes are amazing . I don't know if you applied dodge and burn on them , but they stand out beautifully . The vignetting/ texture wasn't necessary. There was nothing to distract the attention of the viewer, it only makes it darker... but that's just my opinion again.

    Thanks so much for your comments and opinion on the vignetting - I have received another similar comment as well. My intention is to print this on tin so the darkened vignette will offset well with the lighter color under it I think! Appreciate your thoughts as always! :-)

I would like to take this dog home with me. Really an enjoyable photo that shows the love this dog has for you. Beautiful colors and the appropriate back color to present your handsome boy superlatively.

This is a beautiful photograph of your family pet, Mr D. You have captured his wonderful expression and his eyes beautifully. Focus and clarity are excellent showing his colors and texture of his coat so well. Good luck in the contest.

What a beautiful dog!! And in such a stoic pose!!! The high contrast in his fur patter works well with the vignette you have chosen. He is perfectly posed!! This could be a poster!! I wish I had a six left to give you!! Thanks for sharing

Yes, Indeed! I like his contemplative look! Excellent colour and tonal range: complements his mood. Light and sharpness are very effective in creating a lovely capture. Good luck!
