Hi Christer,
The detail on the in-focus portions of this shot are good and I quite like the bits of vegetation hanging from the impressive rack. My personal preference would be for a slightly looser crop with the legs fully included and for bit more of a head turn that would have allowed for a slightly better look at the eye (including possibly capturing a catch light in that eye).
Cheers...thanks for sharing this...

Unusual POV, it works well here IMO Christer.
Great setting and sharp details where it counts with natural colors also..
Only suggestion for improvement would be for a bit more room.
That said, still a great shot as posted
