Hi Andreas -- What a beautiful moment here , excellent techs as well , great choice of dof . I really am enjoying this !!
It would have certainly been better had you got them completely in the frame but that is another thing . But the details , sharpness and quality that you have got here obviously the moment also makes up for the framing . And did I forgot to mention the beautiful light !
Enjoyed it thoroughly , TFS !

Hi Andreas - Great moment captured. Nice tones and colors. I'm curious where the FP was as the paw looks sharper than the heads. We've all been there with the wrong lens at the wrong time and no time to change or the other camera body out of reach when a special moment arises.
TFS,

Lovely light and comp with this pair Andreas, the old prime lens dilemma...................yes, we've all been caught out here before and will pay to have your shorter zoom on your waist in future.
It is odd that @ f/10 I would have thought both heads would have been equally as sharp as their bodies?
BTW, who is Lietschi? I get the Lie part but the tschi is a mystery?

Hello Andreas,
Awesome capture of those Marmots, those rich colours are stunning.
Love the defiant pose from those two chaps and I quite like the composition as is (I personally do not feel the need for more space around them).
What makes this image for me is the POV - helps one perceive the subjects larger than they are and adds to the dramatic content of the scene.
I would be super pleased to have this in my folders, my friend:)
Warmest regards,

What an awesome shot Andreas! I like the tight framing and the wonderful details and colours. Great interaction superbly captured.

I like the way its framed Andreas, I don't think that having the full bodies own the shot would have been beneficial, as it would have taken the eye away from the 'action area', i.e. the heads.
Techs and processing as good as ever - good to see you back on here - hope the Guzzi did you proud!

Hi Andreas, never seen marmot fighting before, so thank you. Your techs are excellent as both of them are sharp and in good focus. Too bad about the crop, but looks like you have done your best. Love the details on the fur and head as well as the paws. Loi

Such a fun shot and I think you did well - not being able to gauge this against a full-body version of the marmots but I like the detail and the intensity the close angle afforded you.
Interesting thoughts on the aperture, I would also have thought f10 would be a good call.
