Really like the pose and the intent stare, Don. Nice view of the eye. Only wish for a tad more depth of field.
I really like that HA and eager stare at the water. I too wish there was more dof on the body.
Love the pose and the particualr HA you got here. Good call in adding canvas at right, but there is a change in direction on the ripples where the addition begins...careful with that as it gives it away. All else looks great, and I am OK with the DOF.
Don:
The intense stare and pose make this for me. Sharp of course.
I would not want to be a small fish in his territory!
Cheers
Randy
great detail in the neck and head, great pose, the eyes are amazing
