    Same cheetah you posted on 5/21, yes? I like eye contact better on the other one.
    Still see bit on magenta cast, mostly on back body. Funny why only there.

    Good looking cheetah Ken Like the different crop and overall feel. Increasing contrast a bit or presenting as is just a mater of taste, I like the look as presented !! Excellent !!

    I like the intense stare, the golden eyes and the half-open mouth. Also the way you have composed this, with the cheetah's face in the upper left, and looking towards the right of the frame.

    Ken,
    This looks nice. I liked the vegetation of the previous one. A vertical composition of the face and front legs would have been nice as well. Thanks for sharing.

    Cheers,

    Thanks for the comments.
    Tom,

    I have no idea whether this is the same Cheetah as the last one, there were 3 sub-adults with mum.

    Looking at it again I agree that a litle more contrast would help

    Unfortunately there was a bush directly in front below the head.
