What’s working

I really enjoy photos that use natural light to highlight the main subject of the photograph. You nailed it with sunlight on the pup. I also like how the interior of the room fades to black.

What would make it stronger

Possibly cropping out the vehicles or shooting from an angle that doesn’t include them, and reducing exposure a stop or 2 so that the shadows are darker.
