Hola Chris, me parece diferente y muy buen ángulo el que tu seleccionaste para retratarlo, sus ojos enormes roban la atención, yo me pregunto qué estará viendo? tal vez un mosquito?, me gusta la perspectiva. La variedad de los tonos iluminados con luz suavemente disminuida que van de verde al amarillo permiten apreciar muy bien la rugosidad de su piel. Saludos Cordiales. *Ninfa Urania*

Mganifica macro,como logro tomar los ojos con flash sin reflejos molestos es una gran demostracion tecnica!!!!
saludos
CARLOS

Hello Chris, nice shot. I like the composition and the colours are very good too. Maybe it could do with a little USM. It's a lovely shot though, well done.

Hi Chris,
Nice flashwork with a great BG that sets it off nicely. Well composed with great detail, color, and efficient use of F3.2
Well done!

Wow a superbly executed shot, the colors are excellent and composition is super!
