Own critique nailed it, but would take this any day. Love the lighting and have my eye on that hide as a future wish list trip... :). TFS

Beautiful light and detail here. HA could be better, but the light goes makes up for a lot.

Nice one. A slight turn of head towards you would have been great. However, that would have left less space at the right (in case this is a full frame image). Love those glistening teeth.
