Hi Theo
Welcome to TrekNature.
I love your portrait of this Bongo bok. You've captured amazing details, lighting and DOF. His large round eyes are heartwarming.

Hi Theo,
congratulations for such a lovely capture of this unique animal. i like the superbs details and sharpness that you have composed. The out of focus background really work very well, yet the stripes could be seen. You too have cropped the portrait professionally making this presentation a top class shot.
Well done and youre a promising star.

Regards,
Foozi

Hallo Theo
Welcome to Trek Nature, may you have an enjoyable and most educational journey.
A very impressive portrait of this Bongo. The markings and patterns on the face are so beautiful and impressive and it actually looks as if was painted by hand. The direct eye contact is amazing and the big brown eyes are really something special. The clarity of the fine hairs on the neckline and in the ears is super sharp. In overall the focus, sharpness and framework are well done and your display of the buck is excellent. Thanks for sharing.
Hope to see more soon.

Hello Theo !
This is a great portrait of this Bongo ! You managed to reproduce every detail of its face, and I love the intense look of the Bongo, directly on you - great eye-contact. Soft natural colors, splendid POV, wonderful pose of the Bongo. As for the composition, I would have left a tiny bit more space at each side, because I feel the picture has been cut a bit too close to the big ears. This, of course, is just my humble opinion, and the picture is great. Very well done !
Valérie.
