Roberto,
Very Nice, good detail and I like the pose you captured, he is hanging on. The back ground is outstanding.

Well captured and processed, Roberto. Excellent detail in the DF, and a very nice BG. I would have preferred the DF more to the left in the image, but this is minor and I don't know what was to the right that may have prevented panning slightly in that direction.
