    Hi folks another shot from this sept in Filzmoos ( Austria )

    Excellent interaction shot, Andreas. This one works very well for me. As usual, your tone, colour and detail on the animals is excellent and well-chose DOF with the two foreground animals looking pretty sharp. Background looks very good too although I might be tempted to darken the bright rocks in the background to make them a touch less distracting. For composition, I thought this might work better with a touch of the bottom and similar amount added to the top?

    Hi Andreas - I quite like this as posted but think that Glenn's suggestion on comp is a good one if you have more room above. It seems you had a good visit with the marmots this year. Excellent interaction, nice tones and detail.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Love this. The facial expressions, with the little one at the back, where you can only see the one eye. Lovely detail, POV and BG. Reminds me of the huddle, which my football team does before every game. I think they'll have to do more than a 'huddle' to beat Bayern this evening

    This is very funny! I love the poses and the head-to-head attitude of the two main protagonists and the one in the back cuts the tension and makes it comical.

    As always, rendition of the fur is superb. The bright spots - flowers or rocks in the background are a bit distracting but part of the scenery...

    I could see a version with a little cropped of the bottom of the image and the rock on the bottom left corner really pokes me in the eye!

    Lovely shot fine details. For me it would be very good... but for you - I do not think so fine as you have been recently posting.
    I like the composition as is also the colours.
