Thanks Lucem. I almost didn't submit it because of the background. Then I thought, this guy is in a cage so might as well leave it as it is (besides, I'm too lazy to change the background :) Thanks for the comment Lucem.

This shot is almost perfect.
Why almost? Bcoz the background would have to be better to reach that level.
I would say either a solid green grass, a blue sky, a total black bakground, etc.

Hi Mary Anne. I seem to recall that that was an issue with 10D. But you can never believe these guys, they complain for the sake of complaining. So basically...I don't know.

I like the shot, but it seems to have the same "red problem" that my G3 has. Sometimes I absolutely cannot get my camera to focus on bright reds like this, and the details are flattened out. Is there something in the Canon sensors that causes this?

Thanks Rod. That was my thought too. I think sharpness is critical for this kind of shot. Unfortunately this guy didn't allow me to take his shot. Maybe he is acting to impress the ladies. I don't know.

I like this too, the image seems a bit soft which sometimes looks better than looking at sharp shot after sharp shot. But when looking at a face something in me wants to see a sharp eye, have you done any sharpening yet on this shot aam?
