 This little gal thought it a good idea to settle down for a bit and groom herself.

I am just getting used to the Nikon R1 Wireless Close-Up Speedlight, and she was a very cooperative subject.

Editing: rotated 90, resize, sharpen once, save for web.

Thanks for looking.

Excellent clarity!!!! Very good placement in the frame, one of the better ones I've seen yet.

OK, back after seeing all the entries and I am bumping this up to a 10 (I had initially given it a 9).
