![]() |
Subject is incomplete - missing haunches |
![]() |
Difficult to see the definition of subject and has a busy background |
![]() |
Subjects are too distant and badly defined |
![]() |
Subject taken as a head shot - full on. Note how the face, neck and shoulders all merge into one plane. Very difficult to obtain perspective. |
![]() |
Subject has his eyes virtually closed |
![]() |
Another image that is hard to define - body, head and paw merge too much |
![]() |
Lots of definition with not too cluttered a background. My only adverse comment is the actual image of Callie is too small. That said if it is a digital photo and was taken at a high definition then my web master might be able to work his wonders for me - see below |

This amended photo gives me a lot more definition, less clutter and will produce a high quality pet portrait. |

Although this photo was taken indoors there is no colour distortion and the subject is well defined. I would probably paint this portrait with the subject placed in front of a more bland background, to make Tina stand out more. |
