Posting this as I listen to "we will rock you" by Queen, so the modified title Hope you don't mind!
Am not too sure of the comp here but I liked the intense stare I got which I thought I should share with you all. This is near full frame with the 500 II & 1.4 extender. I think the lowish angle and the face makes up for the OOF tail. I could crop tighter though.

500 II + 1.4 X III (love the compression we get with the long prime)

Hi Sanjeev - Fitting title and good pov. I think you can bring out more detail in both the blacks and the whites. The comp isn't really working for me. Too much space to the right. I would have shifted to the left to try to get the whole body in the frame. You may have needed to take the tc off to do so. Otherwise, you need to go tighter.
Yep, the 500 is awesome and just delivers, a great workhorse IMHO and allows you to get these angles unlike smaller lenses.
Overall it looks a bit flat, detail is there I just think some simple adjustments in the Exposure module, a little bit of colour adjustment, a hint of saturation, not Vibrance and you are there. Crop, I'm 50/50, I think a bit off the top helps, but again you have it all there you just need to spend a little more time extracting it.
Nice POV here and great eye contact, good DoF. The blood on the muzzle adds drama, looks very fresh BTW...Just a few more touches and this cheetah rocks, my friend
I like the detail in Steve's RP. I think both you and I tend to overdo things sometimes in search for that much needed "oomph". I personally find cheetah images most difficult to process - there's one on my computer screen right now so I will see what I can do, I guess I have learnt something from this tonight
A pleasure to view as always. Keep them coming Sanjeev!
Blood on my face, no disgrace....
Hope you don't mind!
