Hi Sanjeev,
What a beautiful lioness in her prime, well exposed and processed indeed, maybe my version is a bit overdone, but what do you think about this? Not sure you'll like it, just another option with a tighter crop and I tried to get more detail here and there:)
Is this too tight a frame for your liking?
Warmest regards,
Hi Gabriela, I like your tighter crop option and the flip works well too. I can see you have extracted a bit more detail and brightened the eye. Thanks for helping me out. Appreciate it and I like it.
Lovely image Sanjeev, my taste to a tee. Nice close up with excellent detail. I also prefer your crop and comp.
Top class PP work! Nicely done!
Classic pose and framing here, Sanjeev, with good even fall of light (typical overcast mid-late-morning conditions).
DOF, bokeh and fine detail all nicely handled here.
I prefer your OP orientation and crop, and I think Gabriela went a bit too far on the eye :w3
Dear Sanjeev,
Dumay and Morkel could be right - I might have gone too far:) This was just another option I thought of while viewing...Thank you for considering it anyway, you are such a sport:5
Warmest regards,
Hi Sanjeev - another one where techs and pp look great. I too prefer your OP (sorry Gabriela). Overall, a very nice portrait with good detail and sharpness.
TFS,
Rachel
I'm absolutely cool Rachel:w3, and I see I lost some IQ there with the crop... like I said to Sanjeev, I did like his OP very much and had no crits, was just playing around to see what other options were available:)
Hope you all have a fabulous day,
Kind regards,
Loverly capture Sanjeev,sharp with good detail,nice close pose,like the little flys on the face,adds a bit more to the image,but I bet the Lioness does not think so.:S3:
Hi Sanjeev , nice pose , good color and overall tonal range with loads of detail in the fur . Very well processed this frame :cheers:.

Another fine portrait here! Again great detail and beautiful soft light..
Hi Sanjeev, one of your best, excellent work. I too prefer the OP, but agree that some work in the shadows/blacks would help, and to me, this is where you have to be selective with some specific adjustments within the RAW file, WD. :cheers:

Nicely done portrait Sanjeev. The detail is excellent and I like the contours of the muscles in the neck that you've captured.
