I like the way he's looking back at us over his shoulder, the eyes are intense and beautiful. I like the photo as you have presented it. :toast:

John,
It does not look like the Cougar was happy with you being there. Given the great detail here I would be tempted to try a closer crop. :toast: :toast:

Great subject and love that look. Agree with the suggestion to try a slightly tighter crop to focus on the expression even more!

Good image of this cougar. I agree with the tighter crop, even to a portrait composition. Would be nice if you would include you tech info as it does help having it when making comments. Thanks for sharing.
