    Dumay - I love this. Great dof, detail, pose and pleasing bg. Not easy to isolate one of these and not have others in the bg either. The tiny horns add a cuteness factor too.

    TFS,

    Hi Dumay,
    long time that you did not post.
    Nice to see a HQ image from you.
    Good colors ,with nice detail were it counts.comp works fine as expected, nice BG with the flowers adding a nice contrast.

    If it was mine , maybe a tad more punch in the mid tones and lighten the eye could maybe an improvement. WDYT?

    Cheers Andreas

    Hi Dumay, a sweet image and I love, what seems to be, an unusual & different BKG which really compliments the subject well which is softly defused to help separate the subject. Well composed and the image has your usual high IQ as ever. Certainly well processed which is nice to see from the 7D, no sootyness either. The impala almost has a cheeky expression. I guess at 6.5m this is FF which helps the IQ.

    I think it might be worth exploring Andreas's suggestions, and might bring a bit more depth to the subject?

    Nice to see you posting, is the 400 a new addition?

    TFS

    What a sweet image Dumay. The exspression is priceless and the detail amazing. Great bg and I love the fuzz inside the ears.

    Lovely portrait bud. Great IQ and light. Andreas' suggestions are good for me too.
    I hope we'll see some more quality posts from you again soon.
    I trust all else is well on your end.
