Harshad,
As I raised this the last time a Cheetah portrait was posted then I think it is only fair to repeat it.
Because of the bone structure in a Cheetah skull the eyes are often not fully visible, as here, I am as guilty of this as anyone else.
You need to be very lucky to get a decent shot of the eyes, such as when they are higher than you on a termite mound, or generally just looking up.
Great pose Harshad, would prefer if u used multipy mode in PS to saturate plus darken colours a bit more. It's not a nit just a personal preference. Fantastic pose and sharp detail. Wish this was mine, superb:S3:
Like the opposing angles of the wind blown grasses and the cheetah. Especially like the look of the shoulders on this specimen, looks strong and healthy.
The lighting and colours still are very nice here Harshad, eye nit taken into consideration.:w3

Beautiful detail and light. Nice comp!
Harshad - nice light and pose. I like the comp too.
TFS,
Rachel
Harshad, though I see Ken's running concern with cheetah-eyes, I would take the sun hitting the amber here with eyes 'half visible' over fully visible eyes in duller light any day :w3
I like the comp with "looking space" on the LHS, might take some off the bottom?
Harshad, this is lovely light, composition, pose and detail. Agree with Steve C - the powerful shoulders are nicely captured. Very nice.
