What an improvement! :icon_cool

The light has that nice reddish colour you associate with late afternoon and the fairly long shadow seems to indicate that too? Is it a crop? If so I'd have preferred Cyril not plonked quite so centrally in the frame, but more to the right and giving him more space to look into.

That oof line running from the back of his neck to his tail adds nothing, wont be missed, and is easily cloned out. You're not quite getting the critical detail I know that lens is capable of resolving. I don't think it's anything to do with your technique, the sharpness is there, it just needs bringing out. I'm sure the shot will sharpen up nicely.

An excellent shot Bod, which we're not seeing at it's best yet!

Edit

Unless there's something we can't see stopping you doing so, try to crop to the original 3:2 format where you can.
