The soft light really brings out the warm colors of the hyena. Like the position of the legs.

Cute pose on this pup Ken. Would like to see the eye just a bit better, opening up the shadows slightly around it works nicely and just a bit of sharpening as Harshad mentioned. Great sighting and well done.

Cute pup and lucky to see him in the open like this. I agree with Harshad and Marc about a tad more USM. Nice comp and pose. Well done.

TFS,

Hi Ken, any WD in the open is a bonus, and good low perspective too. Looks like he's a bit gangly on the legs.

[Steve Canuel]

Nice pose with the leg position and alert head. Just a touch more sharpening.

[Ken Watkins]

Thanks for all of the very good advice, what is sharp at notmal resolution clearly does not always work when resizing.

Here is a repost hopefully taking into account all of the advice.

Re-post rocks Ken :cheers:

[Paul Taylor]

I like the repost too. Any picture of this klind of puppy on the run would be interesting, but this is a very good one indeed.

[Sid Garige]

Repost looks much better Ken. Great pose and like the raised foot.

[Ken Watkins]

Thanks a lot.

Wid Dog pups are such fun to watch:)

[Marc Mol]

Repost is a definite improvement Ken, great capture with the raised paw a nice touch.
