Hi Joshi, I like your low angle of capture, and you have also captured a pretty good HA - a little more towards you would have been even better. :w3 Their eyes always seem to be too large for their head, thats what Ive noticed with this species. I would give this a very slight CW rotation, and maybe run another round of NR on the BG.

Happy new year to you too.

Very nice shot.
I really like the soft light, excellent low angle, and great pose.
Agree with Stuart on the rotation.
Well done.
