Every great story starts with a painting or a sketch, love everything about this photo ! +fav - Oh, Iryna if you only had bought that little painting to compliment your photo, to put on the back cover jacket of your new novel, the Blind Side, Dogs & Cats ?

Iryna, I agree with Rahdne Zola below. I found myself wanting to know more of this sad story. Love the b&w and those precious dogs, Nice work. l/v

Iryna, this is one of those photographs that does a great job of capturing a moment in time and starts to tell a story. I find myself wanting to know more, such as what happened before and what happens next. Wonderful intrigue.

This is a great capture Iryna. The black and white helps tell the story better than color. Nice work!

There is so much emotion in this image. I instantly feel for all of those dogs and I am grateful that this lady is trying to help them. A great street shot, that tells a wonderful story.

WOW! Fantastic image! The whole frame is filled with entertainment! Great composition! I'll be shocked if this isn't a best selling image!

Such great subject matter... love the heart and soul of the woman with the needy dogs, and the artist capturing the scene on canvas. There is so much texture in the stones, bricks and peeling building. Fantastic and emotional shot. L/F
