Dog Photo Competition 2012 : Entry Number 363

this is one of those shots where you actually say "oh wow" out loud when it first comes across the screen. very dynamic capture, made even more powerful by the narrow dof and the sharp focus on the one eye. catchlights are perfect and the hint of the white of the eyes adds to the expression. overall tone of this image -- staying on the darker side -- leads to a very dramatic image. excellent job! ~ illona
