Nice image. Eye contact is good. The background is nicely diffused. I think some more details in the head would have been great. How much of crop is this? Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Nice image and clean bg. Agree some more details would have enhanced the image further.

Everything's so relative, there are certain beings that live in and around thorns whereas for others they spell caution. Thanks for sharing.
