 My grandchildren's new Coton puppy, named Candy, was a very willing model for a bunch of shots on a great sunny morning this weekend...most with a frontal view but I liked this back-cast one best. Be happy to send a face shot if interested!

I enjoy how the shadow here defines the face/muzzle of the dog. Light is a tad harsh for me.

Cute profile on shadow dog. I like the composition...one tail for two dogs.

which is you and which is your shadow? The light is too harsh on the dog and the levels could be adjusted a bit to make it stand out more from the background and also make the shadow more of a solid black. Also would have been better with the face in it. Certainly you could have gotten a better angle.

I'm not a big fan of pet-shots, but this one is really cute and thematically perfect for this challenge. I wonder how it would have looked had you put him on a staged backdrop rather than the cement so there is only the texture of his fur adding to the contrast of the shadow. In any event, great shot. If I could vote, I'd give you high marks just for making me smile.
