Good image that could improve IMHO by a tighter crop to get rid of the bottom and left blurs.

I think I would have liked it better if the ears were not cropped off.

I love the expression and detail in the horse's face, but the shot could've really benefitted from having the blurry gray areas on the left and bottom cropped out.

Mamma Mia ... turn away in disgust from this super image? ... Don't be daft, girl! ... Not to mention that the technicals in this image are spot ON! ... Go you ... give us some more!

Go ahead and smile, Dearie. :)

P.S. Don't judge yourself by what you see on billboards ... Just in case you haven't seen these ...

I think it is a just fine, well shot, well cropped, very honest portrait shot.

I do agree that the nose and beads are just a tad overblown and might be helped a bit by taking this image into PhotoShop and going into levels and pulling back on the output whites just a tad ... if you have PhotoShop ... If not ... just pull back on the brightness a bit in any image editor as I don't think the rest would suffer too much if you did.

If I was gonna be fussy, I would say some noise reduction could help this a bit to make it look more smooth.

I very much like that this looks very candid and captured rather than posed. This is definitely NOT your average "snapshot"
