Hi Rachel , good composition of this "beauty" lioness, looking a bit odd with that flapped ear.Like the overall tones and colors with good details .The HL does look a bit too light , think they are almost blown or borderline of being blown . They look almost white, just a minor thing.If you have lightened the shadowed side of her face i would back off , because it looks too light for the light angle , at least for me. Besides that a nice handling of the somewhat strong side lightning.
Nice job all around . TFS Andreas

Hi Rachel,
read Mr Shadow man comment. I agree with the highlights. When first seen I was wondering a bit than I saw it, you just let them in to see if we really look properly .
See we do look, better get rid of them and built in something else
Love the details as always and for sure the funny ear.
Have a great eve

Thanks Andreas and Anette - yes, the highlights on the side are borderline in a few places. I exposed for the shaded side of the face (FP was also on shaded eye) so had a few more blinkies than I normally would like. I might be able to recover them a little more.
Thanks again,
Rachel

Nice portrait here Rachel. I agree with the comments above, but also feel you may have overcooked sharpening a tad?

Yep, techs well covered, just wanted to say this is one gorgeous portrait of a powerful lioness and I like this "in your face" feeling I got when I opened the thumbnail. I tend to over-sharpen so this looks just about right to me
Warmest regards,
