Nice capture.

What crop have you gone with? It is looking a touch soft where I am sitting, but that may just be the uploaded resolution. If you can crop it a touch tighter, I would.

Also up the contrast a touch, it will give more definition to the image.

A touch of noise reduction if you have the software would also be good.

Overall nice image, well composed.

Hi gturner and thanks for the comments.

What I meant by "cropped already" was this composition has been cut out of the original photo.

Contrast and noise reduction I will see what I can do with that, I was wondering how to bring out his black eyes in his black hood which are behind the white spots that look like eyes.

Thanks again g
