    Looks great! If anything, I'd fiddle with saturation a bit to get more color into the picture.
    Listen, three eyes, don't you try to outweird me, I get stranger things than you free with my breakfast cereal.

    I think that you should go back and ask your model to do some different poses for you: face on, laying down, perhaps springing towards the camera.......

    It's a neat capture. I do wish I could see more of the tiger though.

    I agree with Fortytwo on this one, needs some color for it to pop.

    I agree with both Forty-Two and Bambi. More saturation to make it pop a little more and a less tight crop.

    I'd sharpen that eye up a bit also and try to drop the highlights back a little. And I agree that more saturation on the tiger would help.
    I'd then dodge in the darker areas of the nose, mouth and ear area to lighten them a tad.

    I don't mind the crop ... would have been nicer with all the ear though.

    Get that eye to stand out as I said and it will lift this a heap!

    Default Thanks

    Thanks for the suggestions, I'll have a play with the colour. I can only make the crop tighter, that's 100% (taken with a canon 100mm macro and the tiger not far away from the glass window).

    This is my other favourite from the day - any suggestions here?

    Hey that second one is a beauty.
    I'd be dodging up those eyes and cropping out that top bit of pavement. It also had a slight colour cast on it ... looks kind of greenish I think so maybe add a touch of red.

    Ah, yeah. Frame it! Great capture.
