Good thing I don't scare easily Ingrid

Really like the comp and short DOF, perfect for this.
I visited your website, excellent!

Very unusual and interesting comp for this. Great clarity on his body and I like how your eyes are drawn immediately to his beady eyes.

Great use of DOF, Ingrid. I very much like your composition and the warm colors in the image. The eyes are particularly riveting.
