    I like the pose here, and the head turn, but the IQ does not seem to be as good as I've seen from you as the fine details are not there. Perhaps a large crop, or a resizing issue. Nailed the exposure on the high-key sky conditions.

    Hi Dan, trying to make lemonade out of lemons. I checked, this is a large crop. Thank you for viewing and commenting.
