The photo has a lot of potential with its eye-catching composition and the expression of the dog. However, I believe that some improvements can be made in post-production. In my opinion, the photo needs a darker touch to draw the observer's attention even more :). And just a bit of retouching around the eyes :).
Improve it The photo is stunning, particularly with regards to its sharpness and lighting. However, I find the cropping of the right ear to be a bit bothersome. Personally, I would prefer adjusting the composition to avoid the cropping. Additionally, if possible, I would remove the cat's collar to give the photo a more natural appearance.
In my opinion, the photo is incredibly beautiful, however, it's unfortunate that the owl's eye is not the main focus. I am not sure if this is due to the compression of the photo or if it is actually out of focus. If it is indeed out of focus, I would recommend trying a sharpening program to improve the overall impression and increase the chances of placing higher in future contests.
Nachvíľku som bola zmätená, že počkaj toto miesto mi je známe :D A to preto lebo je to domovina! Lozornianske jazero :D Zbožňujem toto miesto a hlavne na jeseň :). A teda trošku feedbacku k fotke,. Odfotila by som to trošku viac zhora, aby fotka získala viac dynamiky :) A možno by som aj prišla trošku bližšie k Endymu, aby bol dominantnejší na fotke :)
I spent a long time deciding where to place this photo as it has great potential. It's well-focused, eye-catching and the colors are vibrant. However, I'm concerned about the volatility of the background which distracts from the subject. I suggest unifying the background by softening the light transitions. This would help make the subject stand out more and draw attention to it.
This photo really stands out above the rest. It's incredibly adorable and I think it could even cure some people of their arachnophobia :D On the technical side, everything is perfectly executed - the sharpness, fine editing, and use of the reflection give the photo a unique touch. Overall, this photo won me over with its charm and flawless execution.
I love photos that tell a story, and this particular photo does just that. It shows a tired Border Collie after a long day of work in the meadow with the sheep, waiting patiently for his owner to finish his duties. The black and white color scheme of the photo only enhances the already perfect atmosphere.
I must say, the photo is truly wonderful, as it manages to capture the moment perfectly. As an observer, I found myself drawn into the scene, which is exactly what only the best photos can achieve. The editing of the photo itself has only added to the overall atmosphere, making it even more immersive.

Our pets are in full-on pose mode for this contest, as we treat them with the time and respect we would approach any photographic portrait, to get them looking their best and most characterful. Some pets may be more willing than others to sit up and pose. The toy dangling on the end of a stick is a useful attention-grabber if needed, and as with any photographic portrait a bit of patience and plenty of shots fired will give you the best chance of success!
