    Hello John,

    Lovely portrait of this White-tail buck and I like the green vegetation in the BG, makes the subject stand out so nicely. Composition is great and pose is perfect - great head angle and eye contact.

    Colours look good to me overall, I do notice a little bit of green there on the whites of the chest and under the chin which you could remove if you like. Love the clarity and that bit of light in those gentle eyes, very nice work John!

    Thank you so much for sharing,

    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea

    Nice, alert pose John and I like the head on look.

    As you are so close, for me, a tad more DoF for the nose would then be spot on. The BKG does need some NR and agree with Gabriela about the green in the whites, perhaps stemmed from any selective colour adjustment???? Good detail, but again I would like to get some more tonal range back into the image to add depth.

    TFS
