Awesome shot. The blurred background really makes the subject pop. I'm not so much about the treatment for this though. The square corners on the outside of the rounded ones bothers me for some reason - conflicting? Maybe that's why I'm not a photographer though :)
We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"
He does look like he could give you a nasty nip. Did you use a long lens or were you just brave? Lovely detail. Not sure about the frame bit, but the picture, wow.
Beautiful closeup and very well presented. Looks super as a desktop. I'm not crazy about the border...but it doesn't take away from the super job on the image. Well done 10 in my book.
