The contrast in colour is fantastic and the depth of field is spot on and I love the fact you can really see the individual hairs on his body.
I love the fact the ground is also in focus so he doesn't get lost in the picture. Maybe needs a touch more focus on his face to get those eyes to really grab your attention when you first look at the picture, maybe a bit of contrast enhancement on the computer? Although I love his ears.
Not much more I can say about this picture except for the fact that I love it! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=" (Smile)"/>

Thanks allot for taking the time and critiquing my work it mean so much to me when people do that 

And im honored you like my work so much  

About the focus your right and why it became like that is because the picture if very heavily cropped so the quality of the picture is not 100% :/ 

You think is should do even more contrast hmm i will have that in mind for sure 

Thanks again 

Sincerely

Vilken skönhet. Jag ska försöka ta mig till Kolmården och se dessa i år... För det är väl taget i Kolmården och inte Parken Zoo som det står i beskrivningen?

I really like dholes and this shot is lovely. Very foxy red. I used to take pictures of the pair at the Toronto Zoo but then they had to close off the asian animal section for the pandas. Dholes are certainly under-appreciated!

Beautiful animal!  If I stare at him long enough I can almost turn him into a Cat!  Excellent photograph...I assume it was taken through glass, which I know can make it a bit tricky.

This boy is absolutely stunning. I agree with the Critique by Tally, the only thing I would have liked to see a tad more in focus is his eyes but it's such a minor thing next to how in focus the rest of the photo is. His colors are so vibrant, it's no wonder he is the Alpha.
