cats and dog

I know this may be art usurping art, but this was too tempting. This mural of a bull dog by two artists known as Herakut (Hera and Akut) is part of the Nashville Walls Project. On this rainy day their art and my art collided. Comments and critique appreciated.

1/125 sec, f/3.5, 62mm, ISO 200

Like it a lot Wayne, the mural of the dog seems haunting to me. What is the hand on the mural? It's the only tiny nitpick I have with this otherwise great image. In looking at it I realize it can't be helped, that's just the timing of things. Regardless I like (admire) this very much..................Best Always, Holger

Thanks, Holger. I confess I was tempted to clone out the tiny hand. But it is part of the artist's statement. The "superdog" is clutching a little girl. There is a painting of a little boy in a window to the left. The artist wrote/painted the caption "One day I will rescue your brother, too."

Wow Wayne, I love this one to. The colors & effect is amazing. Great work as always. Looks like you got editor's pick congratulations on that. Take care,.............Patsy

Many thanks, Patsy. Thanks from bringing the "pick" to my attention.

A great composition with fantastic details, the dog and the man with the umbrella go together perfectly! Warm regards.

Jorge, thanks for taking time and kind comment.

Not an every day to see a photo like this,very nice.

Radu, many thanks. Your kind comment is special.

Nice effect, excellent composure and backdrop.

Thanks, Chris.

I love this treatment....creative and original work!

This very innovative (and very unique) technique of yours produces true plastic and visual jewels. I rather enjoy if for a while than spoil it with perfunctory comments, except with one that is not: Congratulations. DG

Thanks for stopping and commenting, Diego.

Thanks, Daniel. Any comment from a talented artist is welcome.

Wonderful and artistic picture! There is really a thin line between art and photography. It doesn’t matter if photography is or is not art when it pleases the senses like this photo does. Congratulations!
