I would say the plant seems to be in the way there. Not very useful in the picture, and the flowerpot isn?t suited for that sort of plant either, to my taste. The furniture lokks weird also (chair oldfashioned, even). Lady an dog seem fine, with the dog attached to her, but I don?t see the purpose of such a picture, actually. Sorry.
Nice photo, simple yet full of detail. I like the continuation of white from dog to the white slab to the flower pot. I think I may have cropped out the piece of chair on the left, since the dog is looking to the right, it tends to draw you into the picture. Alison
