Mr. Whiskers

[Sanjeev Aurangabadkar]

Continuing my leopard series for the month. The leopard must be really proud of his long whiskers, it was amazing to see him sporting them and this image nicely showcases it. The eye contact was a nice bonus too.

Hi Sanjeev - Another excellent leopard portrait and nicely processed. I agree with you about the eye contact. The shooting angle is typical of the safari vehicle and not much you can do about it. If it were mine I would sharpen the eyes a touch more.

TFS,

Hi Sanjeev would concur with Rachel's thoughts & feedback, but would include some on the nose too. You could also try adding say 10+ Vib & Sat, % figures personal taste, whiskers look spot on.

Hi Sanjeev -- Another very god image ! lovely details and that eye contact makes this image for me . I would prefer a slight crop from the top . TFS !

[Morkel Erasmus]

Can't add much more here, but would say with the eyes slanted downwards perhaps crop some off the top?

Hi Sanjeev yes another nice frame of the Leopard , works well as presented . Morkel´s crop might work , too.
