Good sharp face on this otter Annick! Great expression too!
Other parts of the otter are out of focus, likely due to a very short DoF. Where did U shoots this specimen?

I "managed" to catch a mink < also in this family > while swimming along the foreshore here. In other words in the wild. Sadly the light was very low. Am still considering if it is worth posting. Private note on that in the way. Jay

Hi Annick,
A nice shot on this Otter. I like your choice of composition and framing. Nice sharp detail in the facial area with a pleasing falloff in the DOF. Well done!

Hi Annick,
A very nicely detailed portrait of this otter. The composition is different with him looking out of the picture, but it works well here. Thanks for sharing.

Da Annick,
Je foto's zijn meteen herkenbaar, dat wil dus zeggen dat je een eigen stijl hebt ontwikkeld en dit in een domein waar het niet zo evident is. Proficiat!
Goede compositie en details en een grapige uitdrukking in de ogen van de otter.
Prima gedaan en TFS

Hello Annick,
A fine close-up picture. Sharp focus with crisp clear details. Composition and exposure are great. TFS
