The blurriness of the dog and splotchiness in the top right part of the frame onto Joey's face is a bit distracting to me. Toning it down might help, however I love what is starting to happen with the cracks and surface of the 'glass' in the top left, this photo itself is super cute also!
Since others have been commenting on the blur effects, I will refrain as I agree with their assessments.
While I enjoy the concept, I'm struggling with the overall dynamic range of the piece. I recognize the highlights are there, and they are quite vibrant; however, the depths of the shadows feels unexplored. I understand and appreciate how that might add to the effect of the baseline process and formal concept, but I do think it hampers the overall effectiveness of the composition to not have pushed what range might have been there further.
I think that this composition is so funny. However, the one thing that throws me off about this image is that there isn't anything that isn't totally blurred. Maybe if just find one element that was sharp, that would help overall. It just feels a bit forced to get it to look like wet plate. My advice would be rein it in a little, and then it could be more successful.
