Mmmm! If anything like my brother and I! :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

Very nice shot! Dramatic crop (I'll assume as you have no techs!) :smile:

Would have liked to see more space around so you get the 'whole' picture. Big coming from me, who crops too tight! :biggrin:

BTW Did the brothers kiss & make up?

Personally, I wouldn't want to see any more added to the image than would ensure that it never got clipped by the edge of the page. I think the tight crop makes it - gives it more impact. IMO.

Hello Ian.

I like the tight crop and the composition it gives the picture more impact. It also made me think back to what me and my brothers used to be like. :wavey:

Ian,

Nice image - my only nit is that I would have liked a bit less at the top (to get rid of that black stuff in the background) and an equal amount on the bottom so that we could see the second lions "chin" but that may not be possible.

Where in South Africa was this taken?
