    I can't help but like it, the pup has a great expression, a mixture of apprehension and confidence, lovely lighting and colours and the surroundings are just right to contain the subject.

    Really sweet, and so gorgeous. And that silky fur! Love the expression from the subject - very touching, Boetie.
    Framing is great, good POV too. Lovely colours and tonality Andreas, I like everything about this

    Really enjoyed viewing, as well as reading Jon's thoughtful comments. Forgive me for being brief, I am busy preparing for a short business trip, will be back soon

    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea

    Hi Andreas -- I really liked the light and the details in your subject, excellent work .

    Since it is a slight crop hence i feel you could crop a bit more tighter to say atleast close to its right flipper for a more tighter portrait.

    TFS !

    Love the expression on this seal pup. The light lows sweet and i like the low angle. Framing looks right on.
