One's tempted to ask 'and the cheetah's environment is ...', but perhaps I won't. Beautifully done, as animal portraits go - the light, the light!

Very nice detail and lighting on the cheetah! For my personal tastes, I feel as though it's cropped a bit close for *this* challenge...meaning that I wish I had a greater sense of this animal's environment. But nicely done nonetheless.

would be a 10, but 2 points off for being a bit dodgy with the challenge definition.

It's a very nice photo but i feel that it isn't telling me enough. You could have had more bacground or something but i don't know it could be better. (6)

some here at DPC don't like animal portraits, I do however, great color and catch light in the left eye. nice texture. -7- the paw cut off on the bottom maybe should have been included.

well photographed/well lit... the center of attention (his head) in my opinion, should be off center... and in order to really satisfy the challenge, you might want to show more of his/her environment.

Lovely light in the eyes - cheetah eyes are so beautiful and you've really focused on them wonderfully. If this is shot in RAW I wonder how it would look if you warmed the white balance temperature before converting? Might enhance the lighting even further? Nice uncluttered background, though not sure it really conveys much about the environment...
