Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Sure, the shot is taken at a wildlife centre, so, inside, but with some natural light cominh through from the top and back. Taken mid-morning, not that it matters in this case I don't think.

D300, Tamron 28-75 with a sb-600 flash with stofen diffuser.

Through glass, so, lens up against glass and just used flash for fill. I think at 1/150s and F5.6, ISO400
