Nice you got the cub facing you. The dry vegetation portrays the habitat nicely. There is some loss of details, have you done noise reduction? Thanks for sharing.

All that clutter gives a natural feel to the image..the way the cub is looking towards you is enjoyable. Agree with Mrudul's comment about NR.

Love its looks. Cute. I agree with the previous comments. You can experiment with the Noise Reduction slider in Lightroom 3.3 . There is a details slider to control the amount of details you want to have/sacrifice in noise reduction. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Thanks Mrudul for changing the title.

Thank you all for the comments, will work on NR. Need a suggestion how will this image look with a horiztonal crop, will appreciate your thoughts

Praveen sir

tough to make a statement without seeing the image..if this was shot vertically, it might have more impact with some space chopped off from the bottom. If you shot a horizontal, it may be good, but will mostly depend on the composition (like what kind of trees/bushes are on either side of the leopards)... :)
