dog - before and after

[error_420]

Need opinions please.

This was a request by a member on another board I frequent. He wanted the red shirt and the dark towel removed from the background. I think it looks nice but I don't think I have a very discerning eye especially since I did it.

Well, it's very nice, but between the towel and shirt is a spot of lighter colour. You seem to have taken this and blended it over the shirt.
Not it's like an "inverted shadow" of the shirt. Got me?
The shirt is not there, but we see a sort of impression where it was due to the lighter area.

I suggest you go over this area with the darker colour and blend them better.

What I would do is either remove the entire wall and repaint it or use a fractal brush in Photoshop to help break up the gentle shades of lemon that I'm seeing in the original. You're also having to deal with gradients which can be a bitch using the cloning tool. In an instance such as this I would just rebuild the whole wall, this way it looks clean.

What I think is the subject is not the wall. Look at the dog ! His beloved master told him to set and wait to play with the ball. He wait's for his masters voice. How many of us,can say that we are as loyal as the dog. How many of us even really care enough to wait just one minute for any one,even those we say we love best. I fine this sight beautiful because I see loving trust in that dogs face. He waits for just a little love not because of a order. blueboy............

You have pixelation on the dog's ear. Any other critique I could offer has been mentioned.
