"Rocky"

“Rocky”

We were having a barbecue at a friend’s house; when Rocky came down the power line through the mango tree to see what all the commotion was all about…I think he got a whiff of the steaks on the grill. Rocky is semi tamed and is not shy when it comes to food. He was painted with a Nikon D2x using a Nikkor AF-S DX 17-55mm f/2.8G IF-ED lens.

Image Solution:
focal length @ 55mm / exposure mode @ aperture priority / matrix metering / ISO @ 200 /1/1750sec - f/4 / exposure comp @ +0.7EV / white balance @ auto / AF Mode @ AF–C, dynamic range /color mode @ sRGB / tone comp @ +1 degree / hue adjustment @ +2 degree / saturation factor @ +2 degree / no speedlight – ambient light / no tripod - hand held /

Comments greatly appreciated…:cool:

Really cute pose and the BG looks super with the sq. Not sure what is going on but the fur along the side looks, well almost all over like it is maybe over sharpened or something?
