Neat shot Ken. Great timing on getting them in step together. Biggest difference I see is the position of the ears. Guess one of them has to keep an ear open to the sides .
Beautiful image in nice light. Great luck on them being in such similar poses, and nice job on the depth of field. I'm a little surprised that both are in such good focus at f/5.6--well done. Is this much of a crop?
I must admit to not noticing the ear positions being out of sync
Roger,
This is about half of the RAW, all cropped from the LHS, I had much to much "walk into" space. The AF point was bang on the nearest head and they were quite close together
Ken - nicely done, good light and dof. Are the inner legs right next to each other? Looks like you've really had some interesting sightings and opportunities lately.
