    Love the pose on the cheetah, and being surrounded by the trees, makes for a very natural looking image. Nice POV and good eye contact. I also like the crop you chose.

    Very nice pose and composition, lovely colours too. I feel I would like to see a tad more detail in the head = maybe just a tiny bit more sharpening?

    Another fine shot of a cheetah, Sanjeev. I like the way the animal has been framed by the surrounding bushes. Great low POV and the tone, colour and detail look good to me although I notice Jon is looking for a bit more detail on the head? The only minor thing I'd do here is lift the brightness of the eyes just a touch. Thanks for sharing.

    Hi Sanjeev - I really like the comp here and good choice on the portrait framing. To me it looks like the chest is sharper and has more detail than the head. I think there's a bit of a red cast to the cheetah and the grass that I would reduce if it were mine.

    TFS,
    Rachel
