This guy seems intent on something in the distance.  Nice detail and colors.  I like the little bit of blue in the BG.  Thanks for sharing.

The look on his face and the hair blowing back gives him a very menacing look, like you would not want to meet him face to face. Great detail and color.

Hi Ken,
He's a beauty. It's amazing that the fur can be in such good condition for a animal leaving in the wild. I lke the placement in the frame and the bit of blue flowerd adds a very nice touch.

Cheers,

Hisham.
