Thank you for looking. Mike

An amazing shot..great work with b/w..clarity and detail also superb! Congrats.

Beautiful image. The black and the white gives some more of impression of strength

Wonderful scene and very good choice with the B&W, excellent light, I put it in my favorite, ...beautiful image Mike. Best regards.

 

Thanks Keith, Christine and Ana for your kind words!

 

This lovely moment between these two has escaped my meagre skill for over a year. With a little more knowledge and experience I have tried to follow the example of others here on PN to burn out the distracting background. I was still unhappy with the colour version (the burn was too obvious) but I was quite surprised and happy with the high contrast B&W conversion. Thanks again for your time and interest.

 

Regards, Mike

 

...bravo...! Regards! CL

A beautiful shot Mike, in fact very beautiful. The tight crop accentuates the intimacy that these animals have between them. Best regards.

...the B&W conversion works so well, you have bags of mid-tone contrast to enphasize the rough skin texture. I too am coming back to old shots with new knowledge from PN - it really does pay to shoot RAW. Very nice framing too. Cheers, RickDB

Thank you vey much Christoph, Dimitris and Rick for your comments, they are greatly appreciated! Rick, I made a decision when I first came to PN to select and use a common frame to help unify the images in my gallery – of course it is a compromise and works well for some and less so for others. I’m glad you like it - thanks!

 

Regards, Mike

This is a great shot. I like the composition very much and B&W works wonderful.

This is definitely poster material. Absolutlly Excellent. Forgive the 6/6, it will have to do as the system won't let me rate it a 7/7 which is what it deserves. Jim

Such a warm & tender wildlife picture that touched one's heartstrings. Look at how the young lean against its parent & the parent's loving support. Excellent pic, Mke.
