The lighting is not too bad in this.
It could be made more interesting by moving it a bit more to the side. The catchlight in the middle of the left eye gives the impression of on camera flash. ;)
Focus is spot on and iuse of DOF to concentrate the focus on the face-eyes works. Also the image seems to be portraying the personality of a pet quite well. Lazy dog ;)
I'm not sure that the crop works as well as it could. I don't like the legs being chopped off like that.
Also a because the dog is laying in his (her) er its bed like that gives the impression of a snap shot compared to some of the setup photos in this challenge where you can see that an effort has been made to make a professional looking portrait. |
