Dumay - this is a shot I have been after but have not been able to achieve. Well done with nice details, sharpness and a great bg. I'm jealous.

Classic. Many ways to go about this, and I like how you used the stripes - where they enter and leave the frame. Perfect details in blacks and whites for me.![]()
Hi Dumay, love the graphic quality on this and the green works nicely against the almost monochromatic of the Zebra.
Difficult with a web image, but I think you can get a bit more richness from within the eye, definition with some 'contrast' between the blacks in the eye (but not using Contrast) and a little more USM. I did also add a % Curves adjustment to 'enrich' I hope, the stripes albeit just another 5 on the mid tones. it's all subtle but hope you can see the tweaks if you compare side by side. I like the crop/framing/overall composition, good techs too, as expected!

Post Production: It’s ALL about what you do with the tools and not, which brand of tool you use.
Thanks folks, Steve I like what you have done to the eye except the what stripe is too strong on the lower eyelid (I understand it's not the RAW file) but I think you have overdone the sharpening...I feel the OP is more than sharp enough.
HI Dumay ,
like the graphic design of this shot, with the really strong contrasting green BG, nicely done.
IQ as usual high, with great detail in the stripes, black or white.
I think Steve gave it a kick in to the right direction, but agree on overdone the sharpening.
Nice work Dumay.

Very effective comp and I think it works very well overall.
