Hi MIke this is one fine image Well exposed sharp love the pose claws showing a big plus and good looking bg The one thing you could have done is move down or up at the time of making the image Would move the dark strip from intersecting the eyes Big Congrats on this one Very fine image !!!!
Really nice sharp image with good framing. Like the alert look that you captured. Agree about the dark line through the ear/eye line. I wonder if a curves adjustment would make it pop a bit more.
Thanks for your suggestions. I did a local contrast enhancement and though the changes were subtle it made it markedly better. Also selectively sharpened the eyes. I haven"t figured what to do with the intersecting horizon.
Alert pose and good sharpness. I agree about the line. Careful, slow cloning at high image magnification in PS can get rid of it. May take a while, but it will be worth it.
