    Sorry about the one at the back still being asleep!

    A great image of the famous three here Ken, despite the sleepwalker.:D Could use some added contrast/saturation boost to enhance this trio.

    I actually like the one who's still asleep - the cheetah is after all the only cat who wakes up with the dogs :)
    my 100-400 is quite sharp @ f7.1-8.0...:)

    Beautiful brothers, Ken, and the one sleepwalking *** a touch of humor. They are in very good condition!.

    Good to see three Ken. It does have humour when the front two are clearly focussed or concerned about something up ahead and the third one is oblivious.

    I would crop tighter personally.

    Nice looking trio. Agree with a little boost in contrast and sat. TFS

    Thanks for your comments, I must have had yet another convert to JPEG moment, the original is certainly a little warmer.

    Callie,
    These three were nearly always in good condition a very succesful coaslition whose "story" was told in Blood Brothers a totally fake documentary. I have some videos on YouTube,

    Nice one ! Sadly, the angle of approach and the lack of saturation/contrast makes little impact in this image with potential. It can be improved with some post processing for sure.

    Here is a repost with a tad more saturation and a smaller crop.
