Nice pose, and I love the green background. In some ways it's too bad that the tree, boulder and dhole all intersect where they do. OTOH, it's a great look a the type of environment where they may be found.

Jagdeep, Wow, great detail on the dog's facial features. The gaze is intense. Very nice job.

I like him in all that habitat. Strong pose is a big plus, too. That said, on my monitor I wish I could see this with a little less warm cast, just for comparing effects.

What can I say other than great capture. perhaps majestic might be appropriate.

Great detail in the dhole. I also like having the habitat in this image. Saw these for the first time last year at the Minnesota Zoo.
thanks for sharing.

Ah beauty! What a sighting! Where was this?
I love the pose and the composition, but my first thought was that the colours seem too warm to me. I think toned down a bit, would do this shot more justice. Just a thought.
