I completely agree that a tighter crop and even a vertical format would work very well. I considered it but chose this format in order to try something a bit unconventional by seeking to emphasize the various diagonal elements in the image -- the long shadow, her legs, the black cloth, and her hair. I'm still not sure it works haha. But thanks for your suggestion. Much appreciated!

Thanks Deardorff! We usually avoid dappled light, at least on faces, but decided to incorporate it into the photo. My sweet young friend, who's a dog groomer by profession, was enjoying trying out new poses.

Thanks so much for your very nice, thoughtful comments!

'Not sure I quite understand your comment, nevertheless I appreciate your making the effort. Thanks!

Nice capture -- creates a sense of anticipation of what's about to happen. Is he taking an object out of the canine's mouth or preparing to unleash him on some unsuspecting passerby?

Thanks Bill. I appreciate your comment.

Thank you daveoo and Coldkennels!

Unusual and interesting take on things. Nice capture of what seems like happiness mixed with a bit of anticipation.

Thank you Robert!
