 Yep - a pet portrait. Caly was covered in snow and looked very funny. The shot was taken facing the frozen and snow covered field on a hill behind - hence the uneven horizon.

Editing: Cloned out leash, adjusted levels to make snow white, boosted saturation, noise ninja, crop, resize for web.

Thanks Kari for the B/W idea: Here is my effort in B/W

Composition: What a perfect use of a centered square crop.

Lighting/Exposure: Light is wonderful! Nothing lost in highlights or shadow.

Pose: I really love the angle you chose for the sitting pose.

Suggestions for Improvements: I can't think of any.

What a cute dog! I hear this breed makes excellent police dogs as well because they are very smart. :)

I think this stands out more in colour; it's more of a stark contrast. Great job on exposing this in the snow!
