Hi Robert, yes it is a little soft but I love the expression you captured here! So many images of big cats try to portray big, fierce kitty and tend to forget the softer side that all animals have.

You have done well to catch this and the result is a very appealing picture. Nice one!! 8) :)

Robert even though it is slightly soft it works for me because of the pose. It is just a quiet, peaceful image. Nice job.

Aw, this kitty is cute; makes me want to hug it. 'Course I'd probably be lunch if I did. Look at the size of those paws!

Looks like you did well with the image prep. I rather like the soft fuzzy feel.

Nice one and I like the comp. Seems slightly soft overall, as mentioned above, which goes well with the comp, a sleepy picture. I think it works well with the overall picture/mood here... Thanks for posting..

Nice relaxed pose. I would consider cropping up from the bootom to eliminate most of the big rock and focus more on the tiger-just my preference. thanks for posting in Wildlife.

Looks fine to me Robert!
I often look at images such as this, and wonder if the animal could possibly be thinking of where he really would rather be!

Robert, the softness seems to go well with the sad, contemplative look, and adds to the mystery of what it's dreaming about.
