  1. I love the dog on the laptop. I think you could go farther with that and do a lot of scenes where these dogs are doing human things. I think that would be great.

    I also love the photo of the toy making the chalk picture. Making toys create something is a great idea. I love the composition too.

  2. The first image in the narrative series is just so sad! I love how you were able to capture his emotion so well.
    Also, the photo at the bottom is wonderful, the inanimate object creating something is a very interesting idea. A series on this would be very strong!
    Nice job!

  3. I like the first three dog pictures the best...especially the first and third. I think that it would be interesting if you had the dogs do more 'people' stuff..like the second dog picture. I also really like both of the miniatures pictures.

  4. I agree with Sarah in that the one with little guy and the huge sidewalk chalk...a series of those might interesting. I also think the one with the dog and the sad face is strong. He looks so small compared to the card seat.

  5. Omg the last one is absolutely fantastic. I am in love...definitely needs to be in your final project. Maybe sharpen that up a little bit and up the contrast? That is just me though because I am addicted to dramatic photography.
    Also the second one is my favorite...I love the dog typing on the laptop. I love that it is in black and white and I really like the playful the photograph represents.

  6. I really like the dog photos, i think they would make a great series. I also like the idea of the figurine drawing with chalk, would be a great starting point for more pics like it.

  7. I love the second one because your dog looked like it was webcamming... which was cute and interesting.
    Also I like the perspective and framing of the last picture... It looks great!!

  8. love the idea of the characters creating draw representations of other characters. lots of potential for larger projects there. also using characters to convey serious ideas/emotions can allow us to personify them and can allow you to discuss difficult topics.

    LOVE the first dog picture. such an emotive image. and it is real and we as viewers feel the reality. i like that it is not constructed because it feels so genuine and evokes empathy.

  9. the dog ones are great, you have a talent at capturing their emotions and creating a narrative with them and having them behave and be patient. Those are my favorites, all of the dog ones, but the figure ones are very good too.
    The bike photo is probably the least interesting.

  11. You have a really strong set here the dogs have so much personality and are always pleasant to look at. You last is the strongest even the second to last is great. Maybe include more with these figures.
