===== From charliemc@prodigy.net: So thats waht the doggie in the window looks like. ===== From hgregory3@aol.com: Artistic - Very nice.... such sad eyes at a happy time of year... 8-) Technical - A lot of hard work, good notes (thanks), high marks for the effort. Concept - From your notes I visualized an outside shot looking over the business dog's shoulder into the shop window and you would have achieved a contrast of freedom (dog on outside) versus imprisonment(dogs on inside). Still a contrast of sorts was achieved. Looking forward to your next. ===== From steve@neurotrain.com: A 12 T 19 C 15 Personnally I think the contrast would have been greater if the viewpoint had been reversed - i.e. looking into the window. Right now the reflection is too bright and distracts my eye. Technically I think is almost perfect! I docked one point because of the eyes they are great looking sad eyes, but even in the reflection they are looking up - at what? I can possibly see the work dog reading the Xmas sign (very well done!) by why are the dolls looking skyward? The concept is good. ===== From StephenF@whoever.com: I love this one... I can picture it as a frame from an animated holiday special. The dog looks great, and the shirt and tie is a nice unexpected touch. I like the gumball machine too. I really can't come up with anything that needs to be changed or improved here... excellent work! ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: I agree with people that the contrast is fuzzy here. Make of it what you will. ===== From hfventer@ing.sun.ac.za: Yep, the contranst bit took a while, but in the end, it works. ===== From file: hard tosee the contrast. Very subtle. but nice.... jaime@ctav.es
