This is my first wildlife post - your comments are much appreciated!

Thanks,
Chiara

Very nice shot, Chiara, and welcome to the Forum. As your first wildlife shots is pretty good, properly exposed, with natural color, sweet lighting and fine detail. I would've framed the shot a bit different in order to get the whole face, but that is a matter of personal taste. Good job anyway. Keep shooting and keep posting.
Ciao,

Like Socrate, I wish to welcome you to the forum Chiara.

I agree with all of Socrate's comments.

Welcome,

Welcome to the forum. Very good advice from Socrate. I would suggest to shoot at a low angle to obtain impressive framing than this.

Chiara--you caught him looking right at you with a great expression on the face. Ears would have been nice, but the look in the eyes is more important and hard to capture from bored zoo animals. He was in a zoo, right?

Thank you all very much for your input. I actually took this shot at Disney's Animal Kingdom.. there was very little PP done.. no cropping just a little correction of contrast. I appreciate your comments!
