Very nice, Ken. Makes a great child's portrait, and wins the cuteness award for me.

Stunning portrait. The surrounding vegetation and the clean/soft green background make a great frame for this cheetah cub. Love it!

Ditto with everyone else Ken. This one is excellent. Love the framing and the soft colors, fantastic detail in the cub. Post card, greeting card, huge print, you can do anything with this one.
