This is a great shot, Jagdeep! I'm not sure which I would prefer, the snarling cub in the back sharp and the calm one in the front oof, or like you have it. Either way, great subjects to shoot...wonderfully done. :toast:

Hello Jagdeep

Never enough of the Cute Cats. Front cub Very sharp and well positioned But the Show stealer is the other Guy! I enjoy the Image as presented, It tells a saucy-story.

Very cute indeed Jagdeep. You already know that the super low angle rocks. Further those big shiny eyes are very strong focal points. What confuses me a bit here is taht the focus in on the front cub, but my eye also gets drawn immediately to the second cub with its snarling pose; if only the first cub had that snarling expression!

Amazed at the consistency with which you manage to get these low perspectives without any foreground obstructions :toast:

Love the low angle here. In cases like this I either like both to be sharp or the BG one to be a bit more OOF.
Vincent made a good point on the expressions...
