Hi Andrzej and warm welcome to the Wildlife Forum.
As I have no idea about the kit your using sadly, or to the depth of post production I will keep it short, however either in this post, or future posts, please add as much information about the shot, conditions, if the subject is wild/captive etc, as it helps to understand the image and if there are any SPECIFIC questions you would like feedback/advice on. also don't be shy in posting replies on other images to, it's a great way to learn and be part of the 'community' here.
I quite like the placement within frame, although it's a tad tight at the bottom of the image, you need a little more image content. Overall the image looks a quite saturated, especially the environment, the subject looks OK. It's a nice pose with the body side on and the face looking to you, but you always need to look and to avoid clipping the tail, something you will get to know. Finally when shooting images in bright, or harsh light look also for the highlight which can be a little distracting in an image, like the stems of the bushes in the background.
So if you can:
Drop the saturation go the foliage green/yellow
If you used any Contrast back it off to perhaps zero
Add some more sharpening, this needs to be the last element you do and ALWAYS to the final cropped size, do not apply sharpening to a large image, then scale it down.
Hi Andrzej - Another warm welcome to BPN and the Wildlife Forum! Nice first post. Steve has covered the critique well. My immediate response to the image was too bad you clipped the tail on the right and it's a bit tight below.
I also echo Steve's point about giving us a bit more information in your post and also that the best way to get the most out of BPN is to actively participate and interact with the other members. We recommend posting comments on at least 3-5 other wildlife images each time you post one of your own. It helps foster the community spirit and let's people get to know you and your style a bit better.
I echo Steve and Rachel's comments.
In this forum we put our work out there to be scrutinised and critiqued, all for bettering our passion.
Pay attention and you will learn, more than anywhere else!
Welcome to the community

Pups just started to move around after napping in morning sun.
