A beautiful intimate portrait - and I love the little landscape in the chick's eye! :t: Excellent work. :clap:

I like a lot how the sharp face of the chick is framed by the rest of the elements slightly out of focus. And the surroundings reflected in its big eye is a bonus! Lovely shot!!! :t:

As Rose says it's very intimate - but without being intrusive. I like it a lot.

Crikey - any closer and you'd have been on the menu! Nice work.
