Image made in my back yard.

Canon 40D ~ Canon 500mm f/4L IS ~ ISO 800 ~ 1/1000 @ f/5.6-2/3 EC ~ Gitzo GT 3530LS w/ Mongoose 3.5a ~ no flash ~ cable release

Roger, seems to me I've seen this somewhere.. a cable release, you must be
a serious photographer.. Nice image, my only knit is burn in the pupil of the eye.
It gives the appearance of being sharper, and richer.

Lovely pose and great BG , nice details here , agreed with Don here
TFS

I like the head turn, eye contact and BG. At this shutter speed I might have lowered the ISO and/or stopped down more.

[Roger Williams]

What is the best technique for burning in the pupil?

[Joerg Rockenberger]

Great sharpness and exposure. Wish the head was not quite as far turned backwards as it is.

Roger, Artie has a tutorial somewhere here or in one of his CDs about how to be an eye doctor...

Thanks, John. I found his "Digital Eye-Doctor" tutorial earlier this afternoon in Digital Basics and re-processed the eye. I believe it helped the image and is a nice technique to know about.
