Info All by -- Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 21:59, 17 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
~~Oppose~~, sorry. Background too blurry; also highly visible cloning artifacts on the ground next to the animal's left hind leg and left of the animal at those shrubs. Lupo 22:27, 17 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Done Background is blurry have a specific reason, it is important that the background does not distract from the main subject, in this case the goat. I just regenerated from the raw without cloning anything on the ground --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 22:35, 17 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Done Cactus now is more sharpen --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 17:51, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Definitely better, though I still have doubts about parts of these shrubs (see image note). Lupo 06:55, 19 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I get the perception the goat is about to tip over. Perhaps the image needs rotation? Saffron Blaze (talk) 01:37, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The goat is in an alert position, they tend to get up a little backwards to build momentum and give gored. --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 02:34, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Done I rotate the image a bit in left side --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 17:51, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Good framing except the posture of the goat; I prefer a side view just turned to look on the camera (for the sake of better EV). Further, for a domesticated animal, I expect more details to compensate the wow. J e e 02:56, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment It is not easy to photograph an animal in heat. I also show quice xeric landscape where this type of animal is observed. The picture you show was taken with 155 mm, mine with a 42 mm (Which indicates I should get closer to the animal, causing the animal to flee). Thank you very much for your recommendation. BTW, Could be nice if someone share theoretical material in this section --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 03:06, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean animal in heat? It seems you forget to mention the sex in file description. J e e 07:24, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Done Thanks --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 17:51, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support as an environmental portrait after reading the explanations. J e e 03:47, 19 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support Good detail, light is fine (you handled the DR very well) and a fine composition for this portrait of a goat. Saffron Blaze (talk) 23:23, 18 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support I really like the composition (cactus and declining hills in the background) and for sure the main motive. --Tuxyso (talk) 11:21, 20 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Sharpness issues. (✉→Arctic Kangaroo←✎) 15:13, 21 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Comment In order to improve my quality as a photographer, you could expand a little post. Thank you very much, these messages help me improve --Wilfredo R. Rodríguez H. (talk) 15:21, 21 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Wilfredo, my reason for the oppose is because the animal is not that sharp, and the backgrounds is not very smooth. Hope that helps.
