    Hi Morkel - the low pov really makes this image. Great IQ at ISO 4000

    TFS,

    Really like the quirky POV here more & the H/A, impressive ISO.

    The vertical format/perspective you chose here really works. I cannot believe this was shot such a high ISO b/c the IQ is just so amazing.

    Nice shot Morkel. A different perspective on these guys and a nice look at the massive head. Wish you had a little more space on the LHS as viewed just to get that tiny bit of elbow?/upper arm and the nice curve of shoulder plate. That's being picky though

    A cool pose and close up.
    I sort of wish to see a bit of an eye though.
    Your PP is amazing at the high iso you shoot.
