    Very nice portrait Chas, good exposure. At the bottom of the frame the outline of the animal's fur looks a bit weird, as if you did some cloning.(?)

    I did do cloning and since you point it out I now see the artifact from this. I thought my selection had spared the fur ,but apparently not. Its strange how when you get involved with a photo you overlook obvious things. There was a little bit of out of focus yellow foliage that I tried to get rid of since it formed a band.

    Thanks for noticing this and looking at the image.

    Great expression you caught. I'd probably crop closer to put more emphasis on the face

    I agree with the closer crop Chas plus cleaning up the cloning. A very well executed portrait. Well done.

    Great expression captured Chas, but agree with need for a slightly tigher crop and cleaning up that cloned spot. What a face to work with though...top stuff!
