My dog meadow sits politely outside my office window when she wants to come in (she's trained to sit there without barking). I always liked the look of this, which I thought was a little "painting like" (not painterly, though) and wanted to get a good capture of this. I've taken some over the past months, but I used the challenge as a reason to get a good one.
She was of course very cooperative as she was trained. I took about 100 shots over 2 or 3 days; lighting outside was never very cooperative, and I had to really clean my window well after noticing in the first few attempts the effect of dirt.
I was a little disappointed in the rank finish of this; I really liked this one. I'd appreciate any additional comments as to why you think it did so poorly.

How cute! I was waiting for the page on my old computer to load and was not anticipating this at all when it finally loaded all the way. I could see the title but had to wait for the rest of the picture. I love it!
Excellent shot - one of my favorites of the challenge. Very nicely, exactingly framed, and the dog looking in really adds something - gives you a subject that's used well in conjunction with the window. 10
