This is technically a very good shot of an attractive subject but sometimes the placement of the subject in the composition deflates the impact. To my eye, it needs either a slight crop off of the left to give it an elegent portrait look, or a crop off the right to get rid of some of the free atmosphere and let the animal be more claustrophobic and menacing. I'm a softy and would probably opt for the portrait approach (it really is a beautiful animal). Use the Renaissance portrait technique as a guide, locating the inner eye (right eye in this case) on the center line by cropping as first suggested. These proposals reflect my own sensitivities and quite a bit of art study back when I had more time, and may not be the most creative or dynamic solutions. I just thought I would try to help with some ideas for future consideration. |

I was sure this would do better, although your placement is very good. One of my favs of the challenge. |

A lovely shot that draws you in to take a closer look, but then you see the halo around the right ear which takes away some of the magic. Those eyes are really piercing and impressive. |
