First time posting a photo up for critique (not counting TP52). I wasn't going to post anything for a long time yet, but I wanted to ask some specific questions about this one!
Three months ago (when I first got my DSLR), I would have been really happy with this shot, but reading general critiques in TP have made me very aware of all the faults in my photos (whether they actually exist or not).
For some reason, I can't really make up my mind about this photo so would like some questions answered!
1. Is the fire in the background considered overblown highlights?
2. Is the white balance okay?
3. Is the photo too dark? I think the darkness suits the mood (dog sleeping near fireplace) but I usually like brighter photos where you can see more details of the subject. So I can't decide.
4. Anything else wrong or can be improved in this photo?
Thanks for looking!
