 This was taken at night. It's a gargoile-type thing attached to a building near where I work in London, Victoria. I had to play with aperture and shutterspeed to get it to be light, but I can't recall the exact figures. Used 'unsharp mask', a bit of 'dust and scratches' and some cropping.
I quite like it and the composition myself. Thanks for viewing. :)

Nice photo. Great colors. A little out of focus though.

I would have voted this much higher with a better light source. I really like this picture. There is a little bit of movement, not perfectly straight, and strange shadows - all things that people will probably be picky about. But I LIKE them. The only thing I am not much for is the overabundance of yellow/orange. Good luck!! 8

A wee bit more contrast and sharpening needed

Obviously blurry and the back ground is quite distracting. Try a more close up shot (in focus) of just the head in the same lighting conditions with the same effect.

I think moving closer, and lower would empower this lion... Maybe a little fill or reflector would even out the light underneath.
