Beautiful tones and detail on this image. I think maybe cropping slightly from the top would give it more of a feel of the height of where they're standing. So where was this captured (wild, captive, etc)? Hope to see more.

Please post the equipment and exposure information to you images. Also the species. Thanks.
Great looking BG and the sharpness is perfect and light on the animals is fetching. Very attractive.
I would have like more room in front and behind. About a 1/3 to 2/3 distribution back (left) and front (right) space between the animals and the frame edge.
I think John has a point on the crop and does do what he suggests but I love that rock so much I hate to lose it. The rock could use toning down.
I suggest (if using Photoshop), a selection of highlights (using the channels palette).
1. CTRL-C, CTRL-J to create a layer of that selection.
2. Change Blending Mode to Multiply - adjust opacity to liking.
3. Create mask on this layer and paint black over the animals.
4. After I tired this I still felt the rock below them was to bright so I used the Burn Tool and burned that in.
Sure footed
