I like the space in this Harshadbhai, and good to see the raised paw showing movement. Well exposed colours on her. Did you see the cubs?

[Bill Jobes]

Beautiful shot ... really like the turning road angles, and motion suggested by her body language.

[Harshad Barve]

Did you see the cubs?

Not seen but I must say I dont want see them till they eat flesh.

Lovely image and congratulations on this capture. Really enjoyed the background history . Very nice action Harshad. Thanks for sharing.

Interesting capture. Looks to me like a slight reddish/magenta overall cast. If you mask out Miss Kitty, you can bring her out to better advantage, and
also adjust the surrounding colors independently.

Harshad, beautiful capture of the new mom and environent. I like the additional light in the repost. Amazed at the size of those paws!

Hi Harshad: This photo is not up to your usual perfection, as you mentioned, but I enjoyed the back story and it gave me a real feel for the image. Contrast is a bit flat but the repost is a little harsh. Maybe somewhere in between is the ticket.

[Hendri Venter]

Maybe not your best but not too shubby either. I like the striding pose and colours.
