Nice you got it with a grain. Wish it was slightly turned towards you, as that would have enhanced the eye contact further. I remember the light was bad and it was cloudy, so using ISO 800 has helped, you could have used a lower aperture like f6.3 that would have given more shutter speed to get more details. Thanks for sharing.

Hey Hymakar, nice moment captured. This looks out of focus to me; which AF drive were you using?

[Sucheth Lingachar]

Hi Hymakar.. I agree with Atul.... slightly out of focus.....

It was a bit far off. Cropping poses severe challenges as the image now has to be magnified many times more. You were already at ISO 800. So raising it further and cropping would have resulted in more noise. The 1.4x TC in this case would have bveen better. Thanks for sharing.
