I took this photo of my dog on a beach. It’s always been a favorites, but I feel like it’s audience might be limited because it isn’t a cute photo of a dog. I’d love to hear feedback. Just for kicks, here’s an alternative version of the crop. It tells a really different story:

    A playful crop for a playful dog I really like it. Makes the world look miniature. I like the backlight, like the tones, honestly there is not much I don’t like about this.

    Looks like a lovely dog. I’m adopting a greyhound in the coming weeks, well looking forward to it and probably will end up taking photos of it.

      Thanks so much for the feedback! I’m glad to see others appreciate the unusual crop and to hear what you are seeing.

      Congrats on adopting a greyhound. Indi is also a rescue sighthound. She’s a Saluki. Very very entertaining creature who is also extremely photogenic (but really hates it when I pull out the camera on her - which is kinda all the time).

    I really like the first one. Gives a very interesting sense o perspective contrast. The dog looks big and the world around quite small. Collage vibes. Very nice!

      Oh - I hadn’t seen the collage aspect of it, but I totally see that now. Cool. And yes - you’ve put what I’ve liked about the photo into words. Thank you!
