What a lazy dog, but she looks very nice. i like it.

thanks fer your honest feedback, but I dont really care if its out of focus...I dont take pics for payment or what have you, I just like to capture moments on film to remember. Thank you for taking time to comment though :) If I were a professional, maybe my camera would be better, but since Im a poor single mom who just likes to walk around and snap pictures of things that interest her, the $40 dollar walmart special camera will hafta do, and out of focus is better than nothing :) someday maybe Ill own a nice camera and it will be a lil easier to get good shots. Thanks :)

Yes, once-in-a-while, we must stop and smell the roses. Not worry about perfection all the time and enjoy life. I like it too. On a side note: I had seen your picture on your artist's page, very pretty. Keep on smiling on the outside and soon the smile will reach your inside. Then you will become "Smiling Soul" ;>) I've been down before, I will be hurt again, BUT, I shall overcome all that has belittled me and become stronger and smarter by my past.

• give you my anti troll spray* shame on you mega cow for being so brutal. one can give an honest opinion without trying to injure the person.I like the way your captured your dog's expression. animals have such wonderful eyes that communicate if we can understand. your words always touch me.... :)

Personally I like this picture :o) And I think your camera did a good job, I don't see anything wrong with it at all. That's what's wrong now, to many people are ready to judge, to put people down. What might be art in one person's eyes might not be in anothers. But that doesn't mean it isn't any good and has a low artistic value as some believe. In my personal opinion it is a good picture. I think it turned out just fine! A very pretty dog and I agree with kruser, you are a very beautiful woman. Look forward to seeing more of your work!

heh, thanks everyone. Actually the dog is not mine...she was trying to cool off on the sidewalk as it was well over 90 degrees that day, her owner is a homeless man, who is the one in the background that has been thought to be a woman....he was looking in the garbage for something to give her to eat....I sat down next to her, as i didnt have any money to give them nor any food to share, and she looked so sad, so unbelievably miserable, I had to take her picture. Maybe its out of focus, maybe its too busy in the background, but isnt that what life is like? Everything isnt always clear, everything isnt always in focus, and we always always seem to be too busy to stop and rest in the shade....ya know?

this is ridiculus this place is suposed to be a place that you can post your pictures and get a good critic im sick of all this bull crap that people tell other people, things like nice pic, great picture, and other meaningless what not is not only gay but unwanted i would rather here how i can improve the picture. im sorry if i offended you with my comment maybe next time ill try not to. this nation is full of a bunch of people worried that they will offend some one, and im sick of it. oh and i really was suposed to know all about how you and you motives and life and what not.

ah mega, I thank you for your honest comment. If I had the right equipment and had time to take good pictures, I would take your input and comment to heart and try to be more artistic. You didnt offend me. I appreciate honest feedback. I hope I didnt offend you with my comments. :( I was just trying to let you know that right now, while my life is a mess, I just take pictures of things to take pictures of things, simply because taking pictures is one of the only things that makes me happy anymore. Please DO be honest with my photos. I have much better work than this, you just happened to stumble upon one of my worst shots. If I could afford photography classes, Im sure the teacher would tell me exactly what you did. THanks for taking time to comment. I value everyones opinion. And no, I dont ever expect anyone to know about me. ;) but sometimes I share a lil bit of me with the pic I post. Please do come back and visit, and Ill be sure to take a look at yours too. ~~Jen

To criticize in the right manner means intake of all informations availabel into judgement, thinkink of the personal development of the artist, looking at the idea first instead of the degree and number of techniques used. Otherwise it is criticizm. Mega cows images show a wealth of knowledge and skill. But I think, he went too far (or to short) here. polishes his marshall-star ;) Dont mind me beeing critical, em, cough, cough.. Cheers, chr
