Well done, Dennis, this animal does indeed look like a frightening beast! Good movie poster. The tight asymmetrical crop was a very good idea.

Oh what a snap. Man he is really pissed. The clarity of picture is amazing and your crop and framing are surely adding to the ferocity of the beast. TFS Dennis despite the fright it has given.

very good sharpness and details
beautiful colors in the leopard's mouth :)

Very cool Dennis. I like the crop, the colors, and the framing. Nicely done.

Wow! Amazing sharpness! Great composition too! Great job. JP

He don't look to be enjoy to figure on a photo :o)
But you did a very good close-up. Great expression! Tue photo is very sharp.
I'm surprised... I figure his teeth more impressives. But i suppose the paw have powerfull claws!
Great Shot!

Fantastic pic! He must be really pissed and the cropping gives that special touch.
Well done.

Excellent shot - Consistent focus across the entire animal. Well lit and cropped. Little more of the top ear might be nice but....

Wow, how sharp and not only the picture:-))
Great action, great shot, Dennis !

It's wonderful how sharp this shot is. The expression is really furious. The face shows it all but I think the eyes speak volumes too, so seeing the second eye in the shot would have been good too. And the top ear bit cropped off, would have been nice to have it fully in the shot too. What did you do to the cat??? Very nice work. Going straight to my fav's. TFS.

Gj Dennis, I like this photo alot. It's a beast for sure. I like the way you made it like a poster. I also think you did well on the detail of the main subject. I can see a great amount of detail here such as hair, tounge, ect.. Good Job!

This one DOES go to the Animal Spirit Captured theme, but you ain't getting more points from me tonight. ;) Reasons: see there.

Hi
I also have the similar kitten at myself but he is mine home, so threateningly only looks with teeth on the top. I am inviting for the comparison.
