Very nice image.

Seems that He is a bit gloom, may be because of Zoo cag...

Hi Vadim,

thx for the comment - i donґt think so as this animal was born and raised in the zoo and was never in the wild.

Cheers
Virgil

very nice shot.. well focused....i love this animal.. the riki ticki of Kipling!...
just as a suggestion, i woud have left little less free space at right...

Hi Silvia,

thanks for your suggestion - is it only cos of your personal taste or would i reach a better effect ? Thx for your reply.

Cheers
Virgil

i am less than a photographer, so i am not the best to talk about tecniques.. but just make a try and crop maybe the half of the empty space at right... we are used to read from left to right, and even that important figure ( that lovely one), the eyes tend to go on "reading".. and they loose in that big space... maybe i`m wrong, just make a try and let your senses choose ....
thanks for consider my opinion!

Hi Silvia,

thanks for your opinion - iґll try that and see whether i like the result or not.

Cheers
