Critique Style Requested: Standard

The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.

Description

This leopard and cub in a tree in Botswana. Low light so the ISO was high. I like the framing of the tree but maybe needs more crop?

Specific Feedback

What would make this better?

Technical Details

Sony 200- 600 lens at 400 MM shot at 1/2000 F6.7 ISO 8000 hand held.

Great look at this cat and kitten Phil. I really like the frame of the branches, the open mouth and the teeth of momma showing. I might think about selectively toning down and maybe blurring the bright BG just a bit.

It is beautifully framed, you may crop off some canvas at the bottom.
Mother leopard has beautiful expressions but somehow brught BG is not very supportive.

I agree with the comments. I will try some of the edits and post the revised version.
Thank you
