Hi Sanjeev - Like with Dumay's posts of Scotia's cubs from this year, Marula was pregnant with this cub when we were in the Timbavati. Nice job on getting good sharpness through all of the grasses and at a slow ss. If it were mine I would level the eyes with a bit of ccw rotation and also reduce the blues/cyans coming through on the body.
Btw I agree about all the excellent predator images being posted.
TFS,
Rachel

Very cute, I love the eyes. I would go tighter on the crop to eliminate more of the distracting grass if you have more. Also maybe back down the contrast a touch. Very nice sighting.

Hi Sanjeev great you have the head clear through all that grass . Cute looking boy/girl . Good suggestion made by Rachel/Dumay in which i agree.

Hi Sanjeev, extremely hard to get shots of very young Leopard cubs, as often they are hidden from view for obvious reasons, however you and Dumay have pulled of some lovely images. If the IQ allows then going tighter I think would help as per Dumay's comment, likewise Rachel's Blue. Upping the ISO to 6400 would have helped and at 1/125 you really need to be rock steady and with no one bouncing around. My only addition would be to mask the front part of the cub's body & just slightly drop the exposure overall a fraction, but you may also need to adjust the other sliders to within that module.
