- I think the photo is well framed, but the position of the head as well as the lack of light on the eyes kind of removes a key interest area. Most people are first drawn to an animal's head and specifically the eyes, which here are least exposed.
- I love the green part of the background as it suggest a natural setting but also some depth, it's not just a plain green sheet of paper. That's good, but I wonder why you didn't cover the entire frame this way?
- You have some "focus worms" in your image. These are the black stripes. They are a result of dust/grease on your sensor which drags a line when you stack individual photos. They should be easy to clean in a photo editor (or clean your sensor).
Hope this helps, keep up the great work. Posted 3 years ago
