Mesmerizing!

Renardo was all eyes as I was waving a treat at him.Salutations-Laurent

Is Renardo part wolf, Laurent? Indeed, the eyes are mesmerizing, especially due to the selective color. I find the image quite intense. -- My best, michael

...and he know that you will give something good to eat,the pp work is so good here Laurent.Is very interesting how he is so familiar with people and accept the human presence,maybe cause of interest to have something to eat.I told you about our squirrel last three,two year ago in winter time but never see her previous winter with all nuts I put in basket.

Michael..No wolf in this area but any cross-breed if any Renardo may have would be cayote.I tried this in B/W and added the color to the eyes as an after-thought to enhance the impact of the intense stared.Glad it also worked for you.Merci et salutations-Laurent

Radu...To get Renardo to come closer,I have gradually got him to be familiar with my voice and then with my presence,all the time avoiding any sudden movement as he scares very easily.At first even the click of the camera scared him off;now,he runs off as soon as cars go by in the street but he will come back when I call his name.My next step will be to try to get him to come and pick food treats from my hand....but that is a long process.Glad you like how I processed this.Salutations amicales-Laurent

Excellent work!

ZT,

Zbigniew...Thank you kindly:most of the credit here goes to Renardo who gave me that stare to capture!Salutations-Laurent

Great portrait!

Warren...Thank you kindly!Salutations-Laurent

Bavíssimo Laurent! Astonishing detail, wonderful, clear definition and the capture of the wordless definition of "stalking gaze". A definite winner. I'm sure NatGeo will be jealous if they see it! Honestly. Meilleures salutations. DG

Daniel..Thank you my friend for the very kind words.Renardo keeps visiting and we are getting more comfortable with each other.Our vicinity has narrowed to about 5 feet(with treats,of course) and I hope he will eventually accept food from my hand and in exchange give me some close-up shots.Merci et salutations amicales-Laurent
