First off let me say that I really do like this picture. It caught my eye for the vibrant colors you managed to capture on what is probably a cold day. I find the small detail like the reflection of the dogs paws off the smooth stone. Also the repetition of dark leather on her with her jacket and boots and the dogs collar really are nice little touches. As for the negative, and its only a small one, I don't care much for the way the dog is positioned, the way she has ahold of his paws makes me think that the dogs is either being forced into an uncomfortable position or she is about to correct him for jumping up. I think the whole picture would have been more comfortable looking if she had dropped one knee and had one hand petting the dog instead of holding him with both. But overall this is a very nice shot and as a dog lover and a huge fan of this breed it thought it was very 'awww'
