Comment by Stagolee:
This is very good image of a lion. It shows that regal and intelligent pose that lions possess although it looks like it was shot through the glass you have still maintained much of the detail and sharpness.
On the downside the bright backlighting has blown out some places but still a very nice image.

feels washed out, perhaps needed a contrast boost

Reminds me of the pictures of Mary looking at the sky. you know, the pious Jesus Mary? Anyway, I think this is well done. Tones could have been a little more contrast, but I have a feeling that blew out your whites. MAybe a selection of everything but the whites with a level adjustment would help. The face/position/expression of this image is so powerful though - 9. Good luck in the challenge! BTW - like the touch of green in the back.

There are lots of great lion shots in this challenges. A close up of her face might have done better. - 5

This is a powerful photo. It does seem just a tad bit soft as though it was taken through glass or something.

This is lovely. Her expression is so kind. The light on her chin and paws is just a touch overdone, but not enough to detract from this wonderful shot. 9
