I love the shallow DOF here, the composition is excellent. I'm not to sure about the despair in this image but the quality of the photo pushes that doubt up a notch or two.
Interesting idea, but i think the dog is just a little *too* out of focus, i almost didn't see him. The sepia seems to go well with this, and the bone is nice and sharp. overall a pretty good shot.
I think that's a dog in a cage behind the bones? If so, the dog is way to blurry and doesn't convey despair (because you can't see him). If that's not a dog in the background then I'm totally lost with this one.
Being a dog lover, I'm particularly fond of this image. It's well executed and fits the challenge well without being morbidly depressing. Excellent sharpness on the treats and creative use of dof with the dog. I hope the puppy got to eat the props when you were done... 9
2/26 - Had to come back and change this to a 10... One of my three favorties this week.
This could have done with just a touch more depth of field, so that one could see the expression in the dog's eyes. This way it is quite difficult to identify the dog at all. Good idea though, and good colour usage.
