Very nice Jagdeep, especially the lighting is spectacular with that rim light in that woolly fur coat. What is extraordinary is that you managed to capture a catchlight in that eye that is on the shadow side of the head; the light just strikes that bulging out eye. The colorful and nicely OOF BG mountains make for a perfect backdrop.

Nice shot Jagdeep, I really like the way the sun is highlighting this beautiful animal. I also like the very scenic environment, very nice!

Beautiful light on this guy and that rim lighting sets him off nicely from that dark (but not too dark to show the detail) BG. Very nice.

Sweet angle of light! Like Vincent, I noticed the light passing through the translucent orb of his eye for a very good effect.

Beautifully executed. I would have liked just a 'touch' more room at the bottom of the image but otherwise the light is to dream for and nice use of DOF.

Hi Jagdeep,

Ah, beautiful light (and not FRONT light!). Everything about this image works well for me - very well done.

Cheers...
