great shots :thumbsup:
the shallow DOF works for me in this case

 

[metalgear]

nice eyes ! you might want to crop til the head falls into a natural focal point off center ...nice colours too... where did you catch this ?

 

[willyfoo]

Agreed... the narrow DOF works very well here... good catch!
