Taken at dusk (hence 1600 iso setting) at Donna Nook, Lincolnshire, UK.
PS Work:
neatimage original jpg conversion, very low levels of noise reduction to remove some grain from 1600 iso
2 hue sat adjust layers - top one set to sat 0, lower one adjusted to make grey grads better.
brightness/contrast adjust to help bring out highlights in eyes

The pup's fur is probably soft enough without having to soften it on purpose. Or is it slightly out of focus? The details of the fur would look great in this b&w shot. I like the framing and you've captured a very cute look on its face.
awwwwwwwwh! how amazingly cute. Damn it. this has to win something! if anyone critiques you negatively they are talking smack. Your photo is so soft and cuddly, its beyond fur! well done. If anyone says the reflection on the eye or the whiskers or the nose are wrong, or that there seems to be a large streak across the bottom of the frame, tell them that you weren't aloud to digitally remove said things, or change them, and that the whole art of photography is capturing a moment, and you did that well. Bravo. I give it a TEN! 10! Yeah!
