    Wow Will, this is highly appealing! Great setting - the BG rocks man! Excellent perch, comp. Oh, and the subject is pretty darn cute. Well exposed and super details. Looks like there may have been something between you and the lower part of the image causing a bit of a slight haze...I'd add some contrast down there to bring some pop back down there (or use the burn tool on the darks).

    What Daniel said about the low haze.
    Otherwise a splendid, low-level image mate. Really rocks!
