    Look at the mischief in those eyes.

    Nicely captured, perhaps a tad on the dark side but it still works for me. Just wondering how it would print.

    Cute dog and you shot at the right level and got the dog's eyes in the shot. Your bad choice was black and white because instead of standing out as an important part of the photo, the eyes blend in too much to the hair and the rest of the black colour in the photo.

    Recommenation: Shoot colour and brighten your exposure a little.
