Nice pose Jack but looks as though you could have done with a bit more light on to the face of the subject. :toast:

Lovely natural feel to this. A well balanced comp and obviously well executed field craft too - the animal appears very relaxed!.

I agree with the comments about the face. Out of interest did you get any images with the eyes open?

Cheers,
Chris

Great image, could just do with some selective lightening around the face to bring out more detail :smile:

Thanks for the comments all, Chris if you are still there i'm fairly sure i got some with eyes open, have temporarily lost the cards at the moment though so can't say for sure
