    IQ appears better John, but that could be having a higher SS and with the 5D3, not the 5D4 as specified? I would run some NR on the BKG and think it could go a tad warm, but will leave that for others. I quite like the pose.

    I really like the pose on this one John, nice to have that from leg raised. The biggest plus point for me here is having the buck walking towards the sun. Its avoided any distracting shadows on the face, and more importantly it has lit the eye up nicely.

    Ditto for me John, I really like the pose and the lighting on the buck is good. Just a suggestion maybe lowering contrast on the backgound may improve presentation.

    Hi John i can only echo the comments above . Cool pose , sweet light all works for me.
    Just the BG is too dominant , easy task lower the contrast !!!!

    I like this a lot John, love the animal and pose and the clean surroundings, agree on the BG being a bit contrasty. Nice shot.
