Dum:
Lovely light, BG, eye and feather detail, esp. on the chest.
I like the comp as well.
If he gave you the chance, I would have tried for a bit more DOF to get the shoulder in focus as well.
Cheers

Oh boy , this is terrific image , love the light , details and BG

Dumay, terrific IQ and light. Well composed, sharp and excellent details. I agree with Randy that stopping down a bit would have been better. Doesn't look like BG blur would have suffered much. You can try some selective sharpening there but not to the point where it will look unnatural.
Sweet, sweet light mate, and love the overall detail and colours. I also like the pose in this. Another great Mankwe BG.![]()
exquisite detail here bud...with light do die for...I hear Randy's point about DOF, but I quite like it as is![]()

Excellent pose light and details, I have no issue with DOF. It's a beautiful shot

Hi Dumay. Sweet light, excellent detail, nice comp, and a great background. The head and neck are so sharp that the slightly soft shoulder doesn't bother me. Very well done.
