#1 is wonderful, Carla! So much charm and emotion - a delicate tiny dog all alone among the big, scary trees. Composition is super, the contrast of dark tones with the pop of white is perfect.

thank you for looking and commenting,Linda. I always value your opinions. I appreciate that you got the "charm and emotion", I find I like having an emotional impact in images.
