This is a beautiful Lynx. However, I find that the image is a bit out of focus. The white of the fur is also a bit blown out, and maybe a little darkening using gamma or brightness/contrast controls would have improved that situation. The frame I find to be a bit large, but do like the color chosen for it. I would have also liked to have seen this image not so centered.
I do like the brown leaves. They add a bit of natural environment to the photo, and doesn't make it look as if the shot was posed.
All in all it is a great capture of the Lynx; an unusual and beautiful subject!
Honestly, I think the border detracts greatly from this image. It stands out more than the photograph. The lighting in the image is good and I wonder if it would enhance the subject more if it were cropped in portrait orientation rather than landscape. Good Luck with the challenge.
Lovely lighting, on a good subject. The focus seems a little fuzzy, or unsharp perhaps. If this was sharpened, and the left crop done a bit tighter, I think it would have been even better than it already is.
For me, since the cat is sitting in a vertical position, I wonder if cropping this into a vertical format would have greater impact. That and a bit of sharpening could add to the beauty of this animal.
the huge border is distracting to me, and I would prefer to see something other than the title that indicated motherhood... this is otherwise a good photo of an animal.
