Nice shot Martina! I like your POV and the "heads-up" pose I see..Good compositon although I might've flipped the image so the subject was looking to the left..Good details, sharpness and OOF BG..You've done well under difficult lighting conditions..Well done.

Nice shot Martina,
Good detail and good POV. Nicely framed and good colours. Good composition. Just a touch OE on the back , and flipping the image 180 degrees Horizontally would be better as Howadr suggested.
Well captured, thanks for posting.

Martina, although things seemed really sunny, you did great with exposure.

I like pov and composition. Maybe I'd try to add a little bit more of sharpness, but that's just an opinion.

Excellent shot Martina, he is gorgeous, I love the lighting on his fur, good composition, DOF, details and colours. I think the background is a bit noisy, maybe you can used Neat Image to smoother it. :) Thanks for sharing and have a good weekend. :)

Good shot Martina!
I think the POV and composition are almost perfect, details are nice too. However there is quite much hot areas there and this could be a bit disturbing.
Overall, the photo has something interesting in it and your model is really lovely.
WELL DONE!

Hallo Martina,
das Photo ist wieder einmal spitzenklasse.
Das Licht fällt so schön von hinten auf das Fell, trotzdem ist das süße Tierchen nicht dunkel geworden. Wunderschön, danke

Hallo Martina, sehr gute Arbeit, die Du mit der alten Finepix 4900 machst.
Das Foto ist farblich ansprechend (leichtes Gegenlicht), schön scharf und vom Bildaufbau sehr gut getroffen.
Wenn ich mir im Herbst evtl. die S9500 zulege, weiß ich dann meine "Alte" in guten Händen.

Hi Martina,
I like this picture very much. I would have liked to know how you have managed the light in that picture under conditions I find next to impossible to control. The over exposed bottom left portion bothers me a little, you could have cloned the lovely top bacground to get rid of it - only a suggestion :-). Beautiful picture.

Sorry Martina, I have no time to write a decent comment. I give to you the well deserved smily.
