    A beautiful image Dan. I like the pose & the alert stance of this lovely specimen. I think the exposure is good & I really like the detail you captured. I would like to see more room at the bottom of the frame. TFS.

    Hi Dan, looks like you are getting to grips with this species.

    Like the position and profile of the subject, with good DOF, detail & clarity. My only wish would be more space below and less above, not necessarily a huge amount. I would however suggest dropping the saturation say -20 (amount option), as I find it does compete a little with the subject, but more importantly the darker green top right.

    TFS

    Hi Dan - nice pose and sharpness. Looks like he has gotten his fluffy winter coat. I agree with both Andrew and Steve's comments - would prefer more space below and a little less saturation in the bg.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Hi Dan - like the position and the side look of the subject .With nice tones and clarity, like very much the good visible eye.

    Plus one from here for the crop, think the virtual feet have not enough room.
    I would tone down the sat in the whole image , besides the subject , specially the green patch in URC.

    TFS Andreas

    Like the vertical capture and surroundings. Color looks good, URC bush could be lightened to blend in more but not a deal breaker for me. Detail looks good and I especially like the line formed by the back and the forward pointing ears.

    Lovely pose and soft light exposing fine fur detail here Dan.
    I agree that it needs more space at the bottom - is this FF?
    I'd look at toning down the greens in the grass too...
