    Hi Steve,

    very good soft light for the subject. I really like the head angle and background.

    On my monitor (iMac 24" - typo corrected) I would add some micro-contrast.

    Regards

    Bernd

    This works really well. I like the angle, soft light, sharpness, setting and BG.

    Bernd:

    Do you have a bigger iMac in Germany? The biggest one in the states is 24".

    Steve:

    Very nice, soft light and colorful but muted BG fits really well here. Thanks for sharing.

    This is a fine image. Comp and sharpness are excellent. Think the soft light suits this a treat. Well done.

    BG is a pleasing tapestry of diffused color. PD looks good against it. Like the view of his paws.

    Hi Steve. I like the pose, the colors and texture of the fur, the low shooting angle, and the fact that parts of both paws are visible. Also, nice light, comp, sharpness, and background. Well done.

    just love that alert stare, and the fact that he's still halfway down his hole. BG colours are very pleasing and exposure on the 'dog' is spot on.

    Super pose Steve, and love the pin sharp detail in this. I like the mottled colours in the BG. Great image.
