Danny,
Lovely details, great intensity in the eyes. I like the tight crop.

[Fabs Forns]

Very nice head portrait with less than ideal light, but if ti had been my first leopard, I'd been all over him too :)
I like the hint of green and the gorgeous eyes.

Agree the green does balance well with the light. In the future I would try a lower perspective but realize that is not always possible.

[Kobus Tollig]

Nice pose comp and exposure with great colour well done on this

[Morkel Erasmus]

the eyes and shallow DOF makes this shot for me! might need a slight warming up...super portrait!!

[Steve Canuel]

Beautiful eyes. Agree it looks a tad bit on the cool side.
