    She's pretty, I like the inquisitive gaze. Shame about the tree stump hiding the back leg. I find the repeating detail in the background a bit distracting, the eye keeps getting drawn to it but not sure you can do much about it.

    Hi Dan - I like the bent neck and pose. Nice detail in the fur and color looks great. Might consider burning the fg grasses slightly. Did you clone something above the elk's left ear (right side as we view it)? Overall, nice image.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    nice alert pose and soft light here Dan
    I see what Rachel is referring to and it seems you may have either blurred the BG some more or applied aggressive NR on it, rendering that strange border all along the edges of the animal??

    Nice pose Dan but I'd be tempted to tone down the FG grass as Rachel mentioned above.
