    Kathy, I like this image very much. The eyes are getting to me. They appear calm and all knowing and their color is beautiful. Interesting how the backround is a similar color to the eyes. Excellent exposure and is sharp.
    One thing in the image I personally don't think is helping is the one finger and part of another. I would of preferred seeing more of the hand or none at all. All in all nice capture!!

    Hi Kathy,
    I like the capture and pose. I adjusted your base composition and image by cropping tighter in frame to zero in on the facial expression thus bringing out his personality. I cleaned up the blemishes on the face and hand, also eliminated the white specks on the fur and burned in some color on the light spots and selective sharpened the eye just a tad more, also made the brown background a tad lighter to contrast with your dark subject...see if you like this capture angle; up close and in your face...:):cool:
