Overall Vision
Originality Technique ImpactMy first critique, so...here goes.
This piece really moves me... It's inspiring, and it has great visual quality. It makes me feel like I'm looking into the sad soul of a misunderstood creature. I'm really touched that the leopard genuinely looks sad, and the fact that it's endangered makes the photo even more striking. The colors are amazing, with just the right amount of light. The lighting illuminates your subject, and you have great focus. It's like you're kneeling right in front of it, and it makes me feel close to it.
You did really well with the entire photo. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt="
