Right time, almost right place

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Right time, almost right place

Loved this shot of the little one poking her tongue out at the big guys at the park, pity she wasnt totally in the shade or sun. I asked them all to do it again for the camera but they refused :wink: Don't work with children or animals :)

Classic!

I imagine your request to re-compose was met with a similar gesture!

Great timing, good catch. Had to laugh when I saw it... I don't think the Keeshond (breed? The dog to the right of the shepard) is too impressed...

Love the expressions on the dog's faces. They seem to be looking at the fluffy Pembroke Corgi. If it is anything like the one I used to have, I can understand why :) I have a Cardigan Corgi now, much more laid back.

Brilliant! Just Brilliant!

One of those captures that you're just stoked to have had the camera with you, doesn't matter how it came out.
All the other dogs seem to be looking and thinking "Who is this young upstart"!

I think the closer-in crop which JordanP has given this gives a better impression - don't be afraid to try this trick, it's one of the first things I look at when I'm processing, and one of the many things I have in the back of my mind when I take the pic in the first place.
