Beautiful detail, Rachel! To be honest I prefer the pano but I'd take away 15% more at the bottom so they're not in the middle of the frame!

I must say I prefer the second crop. Outstanding IQ and details usual, good eye contact. I must say I feel like its needing a CW rotation...Nice one Rachel

I agree that it might need a bit of CW rotation and I also prefer the pano version.
The colours and detail are lovely here. I do find the choppy water a little distracting from the subject. Could you tone that down slightly with some brushed-in negative contrast or clarity?
Otherwise I think this is great and you got a second hippo in the frame which actually adds to the image, rather than being a distraction.

You've extracted some nice detail and colour on this pair here Rachel, I do prefer your pano crop but just a little less central as per Tobie's suggestion, I do feel that the water
ripples are competing with the image overall and might be difficult to reduce that a great deal.

Hi Rachel, I might look at the old 16 x 9 after a slight CW rotation (visually) based on the front snout, but give yourself as much space as possible to the right. Think you can squeak a bit more 'tonality' back into the image.

Thanks Steve, the pano is 16x9 format. I'll take a look at the tones and rotation tonight.
Thanks again,

OK, then you will come in if you decide to rotate, you'll get the picture if you try it.
