Aweeee i miss my dog I love the expression the dog looks so sad and conceren. The image looks a little washed out dreamy look to it but I like it. I do find the plants in the forground to be somewhat distracting esp the one that goes over the dogs nose. Not much you can do about that besides reshoot at a diffrent angle or more the plant with one hand. I think the plants need to be in the frame still however. Perhaps backing up a little to get more of the plants in the depth of field

This is so adorable. I do agree with Murtsama about the flower tho. It almost covers up its eye. Otherwise a fab picture!

In addition to the plant on the dog's face.. I find the ears a bit chopped on the sides.. Was it cropped too tight or is this how it was taken...

Fun pic..

This is very much candid....unless I wanted Butter stung by a bee...I took
the shot as is....by the way when she finally found the bee...she tore through
the flower bed..and on to other explorations...she has since outgrown the
bee hunt.
