Dog Photo Competition 4 2012 : Entry Number 270

Judges Comment

i do love this panoramic image, the execution of it and its sentiment. the immediate suggestion that came to mind was to photoshop out the ball, making that "sentiment" more about the man and his dog, vs. the dog and his ball. but it's only a suggestion. when viewing this on my large studio monitor vs. the iPad (where i do my initial selections), i'm now noticing a halo around the man, and a slight one around the dog. i'm wondering if this is a post-work artifact and whether it can be fixed. otherwise, a beautiful image, wonderful shot. ~ illona
