Description
Noone has shown me, and hundreds of other people, the beauty of nature and wild animals, like you have

Of all the experiences I've made during my time in Namibia, the hours with you were the most exciting and stunning ones

Your knowledge reached further than theory. You understood nature, saw when something was wrong, and why, and you knew how to solve it.

Also, you were one of the most lighthearted and happy persons, I've ever met.

I was hoping to see you again one day, sadly this will never happen.

R.i.P



Dedicated to Elias.

Ok, my dear swiss boy. This is my first attempt on the new critique system and I hope you'll be happy with it.

I think that the shot's focus is pretty good, a very crisp sho of a beautiful animal. The details of the fur and esp. the eyes are well done. Also the bw-contrast is very good.

What I miss is a lack of surrounding. This shot obviously focuses on details, yes, I get that. However, I would have liked to see what situation this beauiful cat lives in. (I guess you cropped the surroundings and the original format wasn't actually a square). Why cut everything off? e.deviantart.com/emoticons/w/w… " width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Wink)" /> Give your viewer the chance to grasp the situation!

This is really the first critique I've seen which haven't given a total of 4+ stars! And that is a good thing, in my opinion.

You've posted a very constructive critique, pointing out both good and bad things about the image. And you often have to look a very long way to find people who even care doing so! Therefore I'm disappointed that the swiss boy actually hid the critique field from the image. = /

Na wie auch immer. Mein Beileid.

Keine Ursache... Das System sieht auf den ersten Blick gar nicht mal schlecht aus. Bleibt nur zu hoffen dass nicht 100.000 wannabe critiques auftauchen und bemühte teenies niedermachen. (So wie ich).

Wer war Elias?

grad gelesen, gute kritik, danke.
den crop hab ich so gewählt, weil ich s bild mehr als andenken als richtiges bild wollt. und der ausdruck des leopards passt da zu gut.
recht hast aber.

Elias war ein Farmer auf der Farm wo ich war in namibia. hab sehr sehr viel zeit mit ihm in der wildniss verbracht, eine absolut faszinierende person, die jetz leider an Aids gestorben ist

Ach ja, ich hab das nur sehr am Rande mitbekommen, dass Du in Namibia warst. Sowas würd ich auch gern mal machen. Muss eine wahnsinns Erfahrung gewesen sein.
