Love the sneaky pose and the light on the leopard here Anette.
I feel you could get a bit more sharpness/clarity out of the leopard, and I'd step back on the blacks a bit as they look choked up?
Did you try running it through the other sharpening actions now? 
I would crop some off the top too, losing most of the dark brown upper left corner.

Anette, this capture would make an interesting pano if you crop it just below the rock at the left center of this photo.

Hi Anette - I like the slinky pose. Good suggestions above. In addition to Morkel's suggestions, I might burn the highlights on the leopard about 5% or so. I too would crop some from the top.

Hi Anette, with those techs you will have nailed it for sure. I agree with Morkel, the image does lack the clarity that I would have expected from the kit, ditto the blocking of the shadows. Perhaps take a look at Rachel's images with the same kit and I think you will see the areas you need to look at. If you are using ACR (PS/CS) then you can easily adjust areas that need to be addressed. Check for any updates to the Software too. The pano is better and I might look at selectively reducing some of the yellow too?
