Looks too much like a snapshot
The lower part of the mouth is cropped and also the paw.
Background is not so apealing.

S.P.

Why do you think the previous comment was to offensive.

I agree with it too.

Crop looks tight and shot unplanned.

Eyes look alien and flash all over nose.

Better luck next time!

Sweet dog!

Hmm the Eyes from a Dog looks so. Hmm no think not that shoot is not unplanned its correct so it is.

Who say a shoot must planned, or exactly correct.

The eyes of the dog looks exactly like this due to the flash effect, I assume at least...

Well you consider it planned and other observers/viewers that things could be radically improved. You are the artist/photographer so in the end you decide what to agree with and listen to.

Not all shots needs to be planned but if the end result gives the impression of a "snapshot", well then you should maybe consider changing some things next time you take a photograph of the dog.

I think that is part of the reason why you post on gfxartist (ie getting feedback on improvements).

Cheers!

Thanks for your comment. I like your last comment, it is detailed.

Agree about background....Nice dog.
