The composition is nice. I would crop a bit from where the hind legs start. A bit more DOF would have been nice. Thanks for sharing.

The yawning pose is nice. A narrower aperture would have been good to get the jaw sharper. I think reducing the saturation a bit would be good. Have you changed the white balance? Look forward to more.

Agree on the white balance,monitor calibration issues - figured out today while seeing some images of my images on my other laptop.

Nice to see and image of much misunderstood and often maligned carnivore. Nice yawning pose. While composing an image, if the entire animal is not captured in the frame, then it is better to frame images with the frame ending at their joints. Else, it appears as accidental framing. Your images look yellow. Often, increasing the colour temperature during post processing makes it appear unnatural. I used to do the same mistake when I had shifted to digital.

Cheers,
