love the orange eyes and uniform environment here
how would you feel about slicing a little piece from the bottom?

[Robert Amoruso]

Wow Marc. I really like the feel of this one. That sliver of DOF really sets off the cheetah from the background. I would agree with Morkel that a small bottom crop would be good idea.

[Hilary Hann]

Marc, this is very very nice. Love the DOF and the golden light and the eyes. Beautiful.

[Todd Frost]

Very nice comp Marc. I would not change anything with the crop, oof fg and bg really let the cheetah stand out. Nice light with good colors and sharpness. Well done.

Marc,

Looking at this in the BA Lounge in Heathrow, so really cannot comment on colours.

On this looks like you have just clipped the last part of the tail, otherwise very nice indeed.

Must be the monitor, just looked at the thumbnail and that is allright , I think I had better stop now.

[Steve Canuel]

Very nice. I like it as posted and wouldn't change a thing. The sliver of sharp grass sandwiched between the OOF areas gives the cheetah a nice "pathway" through the image.

love the pose, eyes and grassland feel
