I read through all the comments before posting this, and I agree with most that the lighting is marvelous! Might I just add that I'd personally preferred a slightly more sharpening to bring out a little extra detail on the mane and fur.

Great shot, I especially like the stillness I get when looking at the photo. Anyway, congrats on the 6.2 score, it's good!

I got the same exact "star" effects on my nightshots using F8 (star in discussion - top-right lamps) and I wonder if using a larger aperture fixes that - havent got the chance to try it out.

you must be getting a beating from the voters for DNMC, no? Things like, where is the "potrait"? Clearly they were expecting a human face... Narrow minded, I guess. I dont see anywhere in the challenge description that says we must shoot a photo of people. I think this is a creative out-of-the-box idea. Not so sure I liked the slight tilt though.

how could this photo end up at 47th?
It should have been in the top 10s.
What I liked about this photo, I've commented during the voting period.
But again, great photo.
