Yes, a very good shot with a lovely setting, just needs a touch more room at the bottom, but no big deal.

Good work, Phil.

Andy... :smile:

I'd agree with Andy re more space at bottom but no deal breaker. Very nice clean shot with good seperation from the background.

Great shot Phil and the bloody ear lends a touch of drama to the shot, looks painful too.

I like the little space at the bottom and the dead space above, suits the image, i don't like the blood on the ear though I know its natural and fitting etc... but think it complicates the picture. If that makes sense, probably not i dont often. Anyway it is a lovely portrait of an impressive animal :toast: :toast: :toast:

Very nice Phil, I too would prefer a tad more space at the bottom :toast: :toast: :toast:

I really like this one Phil. I agree that a little more canvas at the bottom would be nice. The ear wound looks painful, a nasty and quite substantial bifurcation! :toast: :toast: :toast: :toast:
