    Oooh very 'Cadbury's' Jon.

    I like it, but would like less on the LHS & More to the right, with a tad off the top.

    Jon:

    LIke the sweet angle of her neck, color harmonies, chick.

    Agree with Steve's comp. comments.

    Perhaps pull up the shadows on her neck face a bit.

    Cheers

    The image has an unusual color, almost monochrome, giving it a tender mood. I like the quiet interaction with the chick and the elegant ha. Agree with Steve about the comp.

    Thanks everyone I had slight reservations re composition but the RHS was a dogs breakfast, I had to crop a lot then add canvas to keep it reasonably neat, extending further without it it becoming too obvious seemed like a lot of extra work. I too was quite surprised at the almost monochrome appearance, I thought it was quite unusual..... Something with a bit more colour next time!

    I really like the look of this shot. It has a very intimate feel to it and unique look. That little murre fluff ball is crazy cute. Love the head angle and that reflection in the eye. Agree the crop could be a little better if described as above but I would be super happy to have a shot like this. Beautiful one Jonathan.
