pretty fingers... whatever you did it looks fine..
I think shadow detail is over-rated.

Beautifully rendered textures and super level of detail.

John, Ann - the shadows on the original image were so deep that it was  
difficult to differentiate them from the dark colour of the animal's  
skin.  It took me a while in post to reduce their impact to my  
satisfaction.


Dan - yes it was in the PPG - thanks for the vote!

Thanks also Dave, Jack  Frank and everyone else who looked - much  
appreciated.



Cheers

Nice shot Brian - and given our strong light in Oz, I think the  
shadows have been handled extremely

well!

Texture, colour, composition, plus I had to look twice: it almost looks like a

Very interesting!
