Looks like the white balance is wrong, to me. Gorgeous subject though Very Happy

Great image but I think the contrast or brightness is a little high, but there again some people have looked at my images and think they are a little too dark so who am I to say.

BTW I never shoot anything other than RAW.

Nice image Pete but as Jase rightly said white balance is off and the pic has a pink colour cast to it..I take it that it was white background?..Nice and sharp but contrast does look a little high on my screen..
