Stag (Cairngorms)
Shame about the twiggery around the rear, but you can't have everything I guess :biggrin:

Very nice, i would be tempted to crop a bit off the bottom

Thanks Rene, possibly just above the curve bottom left perhaps?

Yes, i think it would be less distracting.

Hi Stephen,

Out of the two images I also prefer the original post as for me the repost seems to cut of the Deer's virtual legs. It seems to have a slight Cyan cast as well. Other than that a fine portrait of a Stag ready to do battle!!

Regards

Rob

Thanks guys, I too prefer the original for exactly the point Rob has raised, the 'virtual legs', something I seem to forget. Rob have removed the slight 'cyan' cast which has helped. Will post my last one tomorrow taking this on board. Hope you like it :wavey:

Thanks for all your help, much appreciated.
