[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
My dog, Leo is a lovable mutt (Lab Mix). We adopted him from a shelter when he was about 2 years old. We saw his sad photo on the internet but his kind eyes have captured our souls so we picked him up the next day. He has been keeping us loyal company ever since. Now he is 8 years old.

I asked him to sit on our front lawn and he complied without a grumble.

Hi

Nice pic. I feel this shot is well composed and the detail is excellent. The aperture setting you have used makes the pic more interesting by throwing the background out of focus. I also like the combination of colours in the shot. Over all I think this photo works really well.

Cool photo

An irresistible portrait of a fine looking dog, Nap. Well done on all counts: low PoV, no collar, soft backdrop, and most of all a very well focused eye with a beautiful reflection. A beauty.

Hi Nap,
After having read the history which arrived to him with the snake (photo entitled Long Story), I can understand the concern to lose it. Splendid animal. You succeeded in accurately making its soft and peaceful character. I give a point for Leo and another for you because I cannot give more! Annie

Awesome photo of your dog! Nice focus on the highlights in the eyes, the shallow dof really makes him stand out

Nap,

congratulations on your wonderful Leo and on your great portrait of him. I know it's not always easy to freeze a doggy expression like that. Absolutely lovely. Well done!
