Out for a Stroll

[CliveTonge]

I have one question. Is the crop OK? The original has some room in front and to the left, nothing more above or to the right.
Taken with a Nikon D200 and 70 to 300 VR, at 155mm, F7.1, 1/200s, 0 EV, auto white balance.
PP: Set black point; Levels; increased Saturation; Cropped; resized for BPN.

I might take a tiny bit more off the left side.
Really like the sharp funny face, especially the eyes and the nose. Nice skin texture too, TFS.

Sharp face, excellent color, lots of detail! I don't like the title. Looking at the photo, there is nowhere for him to 'stroll'. I may have zoomed out, but then again he's on gravel or some coarse beach. Not much of a BG for a zoomed out image.

Hi Clive,
A nice looking fellow you have here...I like the facial expression. The color rendition and sharp details are super...I would suggest adding a tad of canvas on top and to the right side of the frame, to give him room to travel...good show...looking forward to your next one...:cool:

Crop wise I might take off the top of the shell !!! ... looks interesting !!! ... you made a turtle look good !!! Excellent !!!

Good sharp face and eyes Clive. I like the low angle too. Just seems a little tight in the frame (especially at the top). Nice shot.

Thank you for the suggestions and encouragement.
I will apply a few of the suggestions after I have photshop setup on my computer.
Take care,
Clive

Nice picture, a little tight as mentioned above, he needs room to move, I agree with Gus.
