Guess Elliot I think I found his son ;-)

Like Elliot, this was shot early in the morning, a young male who had obviously been 'out on the tiles' and was still trying to win over his new girlfriend when we arrived. Sorry those scenes cannot been screened. However, I think his energy was finally slowing down and resignment had set in judging by the look on his face :wink:

stunning front on image of this incredible animal. shame about that droopy eye, maybe it was in a fight with robams fox. do you have any fully eyecontact versions? i think this would be the icing on the cake.

Love the way all the colours compliment each other and show how well they blend into their enviroment-nice even lighting as well-agree that eye contact would take it up a level :toast:

Lovely lighting Steve - ditto the eye/head thing - his eyeline is leading my eyes out of the frame :wavey:

Nice, I think the 'eyeline' thing would be improved with more space to the right and less to the left... love all the complimenting tones...
