Sunset in the harbor, a man sharing his sandwich with a dog. Shot taken with my new lens that allowed me to come really close! :-)

I love the look from the dog - to me he looks like he's more disgusted with what the guy is eating than interested in sharing it. A bit too much dodging on the guy's forearm, maybe 0 has a kinda strange glow to it.
Needs both subjects to be in focus. Not sure b&w helps your photo here. Background is distracting. Dog's lead takes away from shot and leads eye out of the frame. Subject doesn't really interest me, it looks more like a family snapshot.
