Hi Arno,
I like your cheetah image. You have good detail, light and a great subject, however I would definitely improve the composition. By further cropping from the right and the top, I feel with less space you will be able to isolate the cheetah's head and you will find the image will improve.
Good luck and thanks for sharing your image, best wishes,
Mark.

Hi Arno, a sweet image with great colour & detail and as you say, you have to love those eyes.
Not sure how much you have cropped the image by, but I would suggest you look at a slightly tighter crop again, leaving say about 0.5 - 0.75 inches of space above, width in proportion, as there is just too much space all round at present. Whites nicely handled too, with an excellent, classic BKG. Overall, a nice portrait.

Love the repost Arno and don't the cheetah have the most beautiful eyes of all the big cats? Sweet background as well.

Hi Arno,
Your repost is so much better. A really lovely portrait and as Hilary mentions, a beautiful background leading to great separation of the subject.
Best wishes,
Mark.
