Congratulations on the milestone, Kaustubh! Good look-back pose, soft light and eye contact. I could also see this as a vertical crop. I look forward to the next 2k. :)

Kaustubh:
Congrats on 2000th post. Love the scraggly hair do. Nice feather pattern/detail on back.
I agree with Axel about possible vertical comp.
Cheers, and heres to 2000 more.:D

Thx everyone. I can crop this as sqaure but I liked this more than square. There isn't much room below in orig. I could have made this in-camera vertical but I could not have got the full legs. I looks a bit odd with the legs clipped. I did back up and make some other shots including verticals. But he did not give this pose or nice HA again :-)

He is having a bad hair day???? Cute to no end, great EXP and sharpness, I may lighten the black bill a bit.
Congrats on your milestone and thanks for all your contributions to BPN!
