Here's Lupo again, easiest of all my dogs to photograph and was just snapping away at him while I threw the mini football. I had my yard door open a crack and took this with natural light; the floor is my tile in the family room. Cloned out the creases in tiles, dodged some mid-tones, and sharpened very little. I decided not to add a border to this.

The composition of this is superb. The dog is located in a strong place in the frame, and there is a lot of "space" for it to travel into. The light forms some nice lines leading the eyes to the dog. Perhaps a lower perspective of the dog (as one commenter suggested) might help, but this seems very natural feeling.
Technically, the focus is great. On my monitor, I can see details on the shadowed side, but I'm wondering if some darker monitors obscured this so that it looks harsher than it really is.
Sorry that I'm not a lot of help, but I think the shot is very strong as it is.
I don't even know what to say!! This is tooooo perfect! The lighting is beautiful, the colors are gorgeous, the 'pose' is adorable!! I can't find one little thing wrong with this!!! Well done! 10
