    Taken a couple weeks back. Not sure the stick in the mouth isn't just a distraction, maybe should clone it out.

    Superb image. Love the pose, light and details in the blacks. You've achieved great sharpness and details even with a 2x. I like the toothpick and the catchlight.
    The whites (especially on the face and tail) look hot to me and are missing details, but admittedly, I don't have a good calibrated monitor yet. I normally don't care about bill shine, but in this case, I would reduce it a bit.
    Very nice work. TFS.

    Sharp with excellent pose, eye contact and shooting angle. Would tone down white on the face and remove the stick.

    Lovely pose and very sharp. Stick doesn't detract for me but whites on the face appear a little hot.

    excellent top view and sharp details, black detail is excellent, agree with Ofer regarding toning down the whites on the face.

    Thank you all for the comments. I have tried to tone the whites down and regain lost detail as suggested. I tried to reduce the bill shine but I still think there is too much specular highlights. Here is a repost.
