I like the pose, soft light and BG and might clone out the white spot at the top.

Its a beautiful composition with very sharp. I agree with Axel on removing the white spot, I wish it would have been be a full Moon instead ;-).

Love the look of this guy! and warm BG. Congrats.

Raymond
I'd love to get up there and do one of your workshops some time. You do a fantastic job setting up as they all look so natural. Maybe a bit picky but I'd smooth out the white circle. Other than that......beautiful.

[Grady Weed]

Once again, much better light here.

I really like this shot, nice background, and the leaves add nicely to the image. Nicely done.
