From the thumbnail I thought this shot looked great. The contrast, the colours, all fab. The trouble is it is faaaaar too oversharpened and there are artifacts everywhere which really spoil the photo. I wish I could give this the 8 I would have done but I have to give it a 5. Go easy on the sharpening in the future :)
Great shot, good clarity and focus. I like the tones too. The ear is a bit of a distraction, needs to be removed or more included I think. Excellent nonetheless.
