In all honesty, do you genuinely think that this is a snap worth sharing on a global website dedicated to learning about photography?

Whilst as a dog owner I can understand the thought that went behind taking this shot (I've got similar snaps in the family albums, showing my dogs doing equally strange things) I think it misses the mark a little unfortunately.
* Firstly the details in the shot are soft - there's no sharp point of focus on the dog who does look out of focus
* Next, the composition isn't the best, with the body of the dog being a little lost amongst all the water
* Lastly the colours lack enough contrast to be interesting - is this a black dog?
Perhaps a more interesting and dynamic shot would have been seeing him shaking off the water when he came out of the river?

Thanks...Mark
