what u mean framing it?

Instead of cropping it to the size that you did, keeping a standard aspect ratio would be more natural and eye appealing. Framing, composing, rule of thirds use, call it what you want - when you do a crop you want to do it (even when you split a face in half like you did) to common aspect ratios like 4:3.

The reason is that the crop is an unnatural aspect in the horizontal plane so it looks more like a bookmark or place holder than a photo. By human nature, you look at what starts as an appealing picture but you naturally get taken over by thoughts like, why did he crop that? Was something to the left, and that's a skinny picture. Rather than, look at those eye's, that's a big boy, or he looks determined. Which are all thoughts that keep you engaged.

Make a little sense?

This cant be real, at least not natural. A car doesnt weather that quickly. Especially with all the new technology in paints and protectants.

So is everyone just doing 2-3 pics a day now? Works for me. (Just a heads up, I don't have photoshop for any photos that I post.) :(

I think maybe if the picture were just stretched to the right of the dog it would look more 'appealing'

either way, I like the picture...I did something similar with one of my dogs...except mine looks kinda poopie...dog moving at the last minute FTL! lol
