 Thanks much for all of your comments. This is actually my very first entry in to any of the challenges.

For what it's worth, I didn't crop this image at all. I only did a little unsharp mask on it. Otherwise, directly off of the camera, zoomed in very close.

Once again, thanks.

I think super close-ups on animal faces are very difficult. You did a nice job cropping the right amount of face, but the unnatural color cast in the background detracts.

i have an idea as to what you were after here, but somehow it's just not working for me. the breakdown in the details seems to indicate a problem with the exposure.

Best: Confident crop
Worst: Quality of image and artifacting

With such a tight crop, a lot of detail was lost, and my eyes wander about too much looking for the strong focal point in it. 4

I'm torn between wanting to see the right eye that was left just outside the image or wanting to see it cropped closer to the left eye.

hmm, not bad close up but still undefined to me ... sorry ;-)

Now that is close and really in your face...
