This one also captured during the SWFL IPT.

This is pretty sweet Bob and it sure is nice first light. I would like to see just a tiny bit less space a the bottom amd a tad more at the top. Even though I like the foreground habitat I might consider cloning both or at least the left bg oof habitat.

[Alfred Forns]

Fully agree with David !!! Would also like to see a different leg position I've been trying to do way with overlaps Might also go to selective color and add a couple points of black !!

Excellent Bog I like the included grasses !!!

[Fabs Forns]

Sweet light, bob, now I know what you were doing on the sand :)

[Axel Hildebrandt]

Very nice light, setting and eye contact. I agree with David's suggestions.
