Light and detail is awesome Gus. Some may suggest a little more room around the subject, but that in my opinion, is stretching for a critique. I like it as presented.
great pose, but I think you will find that that "awesome detail" Nick is referring to
is mostly a result of severe oversharpening. Some very strange edges and the
entire subject perimeter has an artifact halo.
Like I said Gus, a nice one but you really have waaaaaaay oversharpened it
Neat creatures Gus !!! For anything with such a prominent eye I like to position more to the rule of thirds or at least lower it from the edge a bit !!!
