A nice image Mark and a purr-fect (!) pose. Perhaps you could enhance it by warming it up a bit?

A cute cub in a nice pose. Just a pity the light is rather dull, I agree warming it up may improve the overall look of this image.

I don't know what your personal experience is with this lens Mark, but to get the best (sharpest) results I tend not to use it at 400mm, but go to a maximum of 380-390mm and will refrain from using it wide open, especially at the maximum focal length.

Incredibly cute !!!!! I know in this situation you are locked into a position not of your choosing Sharpness wise I think the slow shutter speed had more to do than the lens itself? I like it as presented Very appealing image !!!!
