    What a beautiful shot, John. The light and your handling of it looks perfect to me. The shafts of light on the grass, bugs in the air and the dark background round off an excellent shot.

    Hi John, nice light through the ears, however I feel it needs a CCW rotation. Why not go for 395kb and 400ppi, not 72? All done through LR.

    Hi John - I'm a real fan of backlit images and this works well. I especially like the ears and the rim light along the back. I agree on the ccw rotation and if it were mine I would tame the highlights in the tail area and also back off on the sharpening of the grass a bit.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Hi John -- I liked this one with nice details in the subject and lovely backlit scene captured. Agree with cw rotation and also on reducing the sharpness in the grass . nicely done .

    Hey John well controlled backlit image ....nice work in the field .
    This one works better in tone and color compared to previous ones , i think .
    Good to see a bit of space for the legs to the bottom of the frame ...like this a lot .From my POV you can afford to drop the exp and create a bit more depth and form into the HL and mid tones .
    I do agree about a bit a bit of canvas rotation

    TFS Andreas
