Shannon- Good day my dear friend. This is probably one of the best animal pictures I have seen. It sure is at the top of the list for sure beauty, pose, and stunning features. The title fits the pose as you can see the pride in her. The sepia is amazing work and gives a beautiful look to the picture. I am amazed at the details so percise that each hair on her is so clear and sharp. What stunning features you have caught here. The lighting and clarity outstanding. Love the rock background which compliments her colors and looks to perfection.
Incredible work
Have a wonderful day, take care, please be safe. #6326161
