The Man and Dog

A very nice piece of work here, This picture tells a story. I thing the backgorund works very well; the chipped and run-down doors, wall and step set the tone of this image quite nicely. I think the white socks are a nice touch.

How would I have approached this image a bit differently? Wel I would likely have cropped out the gate on the left of the image. I don't think it really adds to the overall image. I find that the room behind the man draws my attention away from the main subject matter. I would have taken this image with a very narrow depth of field so as to throw the room contents out of focus, I might still darken it up in Photoshop too.

Regardless; a really great shot!
