I recently went on a Safari to the local zoo. I have always been fascinated by large cats so I took the opportunity to get some pictures. The cats were pretty active and vocal today. Their growl is AMAZING!!! It will put goose bumps on your skin.
I took several different pictures but I tried to make it looks as though they were not in a zoo .Wasnt able to make it happen in all the photos, but I did try.
This Cheetah photo was taken through a chain link fence which explains some of the odd haze to it.
Only minor color corrections done in PS
Let me know what you think.
Thanks
This picture is my first published work. I submitted it to be used in a calendar that would helps support the World Wildlife Fund. I was choosed for the month of Feb.
Agree with you about the eyes part....that is one thing that the tigers don't have is visible eyes.
As far as the color, i looked at the link and it looks good as well. I think that would give it more of an artistic feel, cause I don't remember the Cheetah being quite that brightly colored, it was a little more dull.
I guess the question is, do you wish to give an acurate representation of what you were seeing, or show how you would want to see it? And then to follow up with another question......when should you do which one??
well i can tell you that accuracy in the modern world is unrealistic, coz everyone has monitors with different brightnesses, different colour vibrance, different tints, and so on... So you might as well go for the artistic approach

When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.
A Special Collection of photographs i found this month that still haunts my mind. Show them some love There are always some i can`t include due to space, i try to make the features under 50 deviations to give them better exposure
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on.

Baby cheetah!
It appears as a more natural photograph.
nice shot, but you should've adjusted it in photoshop a bit, to add colour and vibrance.

see just a slight increase in saturation, and you have colour!
