Love everything about this one, Karl: the implied motion with the raised leg, the branch he's on, clean BG...all of it. Nicely done.

Awesome pose and composition Karl. Very little to nitpick about this fine shot but I think you could have opened up the aperture a little to soften the background further and in turn up the shutter speed to completely stop the leg motion? I'm seeing a slight magenta cast, but could be the actual scene.

Great pose with lots of motion included in the feel of the image overall.

Best,

Matt
