I live my life in Black and white
I dream my life in happy colors
I'm a puppy among the poppies
I am a Panda's dream living in a dog's body

It's when we see photos like these that we fell blessed.

Blessed for living.
Blessed for having beautiful life around us.
Blessed for seeing that someone has managed to bring it to us flawlessly, reminding us again that life is endlessly fascinating!

This photo is everything: perfection to its top and the given title adds so much more! True that it might be limiting viewers reading towards it but I think the title gives away a very strong and poetic message that values nature and life in many angles. This photo is a full Ode to life, colour and harmony. Seeing a dog as a panda is something that never occurred to me before and imagining that a Panda's dream would be something like this automatically brings to my awareness the current problems of the race facing extinction and that raises questions like... What would be like if we cared for Nature?

It would be something like "A Panda's Dream" by my long appreciated deviant Gilad.


If I wanted to be really picky in my search for "not so perfect" aspects in this photo I would say the framing and theme is nothing new but again, nowadays, what is really new? You gave us a new fresh, bright, uplifting and over-the-top colour to the theme and that is what made me adore this photo.


A fantastic job that deserves to be printed, be part of calendars, magazines and exhibitions. In my point of view (and professional experience) it would be a successful piece ever

A truly jaw dropping photo. This is one of those shots that is given a whole new meaning when looked at with the title you chose along with your always poetic words. Without your added perspective I think most people would simply see a regular old photo of a dog... yet now it is so much more. So many of your photos seem to come straight out of a dream, I love that you are willing to try new things and push yourself in different directions. The fact that you can make a shot like this work so well is a testament to your vision and heart as a photographer. This photo gave the inner dreamer in me a little jolt... which is very refreshing sometimes. Keep up the great work Gilad.

Ooo - that's a beauty. You can tell in the image quality. The depth of field is wonderfully narrow. One day I'll be able to afford lenses like that, maybe one day...

Great shot - beautiful colours and I love the playful expression on the dogs face.

This is probably verging on photomanipulation, but I think a small twinkle in the dog's eye could really help this. :)

Nice the composition and DOF, lovely puppy! :D
Maybe just a little bit central the subject...
nice shot!
