Simply awesome - it must be something to experience this. I love how the grass blends so nicely with this big cat

I love that expression. She looks very thoughtful but perhaps with not so happy thoughts.

Great pose Ronald and the grasses add to the composition without distracting. The eyes are slightly dark, lightening them might give a little more oomph.

Excellent portrait of this magnificent animal Really nice detail in the eyes. Her placement in the grass adds to the photo without distracting. Nicely done!
