What a pair of real beauties. The angle of the shot is great with 'landslide' looking straight at you. Beautiful focus, colour, light and presentation. Also glad they are friends and have a safe home.

    Thank you very much for the six star rating. Your comments are appreciate too. I adore these guys and I liked how Landslide was looking directly at me too :)

What a beautiful capture of these two magnificent cats! You've framed your subject perfectly in their "naturalish" habitat. I loved your notes about these two survivors. Their expressions are relaxed and comfortable making this an exceptional capture. I'm glad they have each other! Thank you for sharing this wonderful piece.

Comment from Kevin Williams


This is a great picture of these two Pumas. It shows the bonding, closeness and love that they have together. This is worth being recognized. Landslide and Sequim...very unique names. That's good that you learned more about them while taking this photo. Adds more value and meaning behind the photo.

You have the young Pumas excellently captured. It looks as if they are in their natural habitat. The look relaxed an a bit sleepy, but still alert to what goes on around them. The light is beautifully used the emphasise the animals. I appreciate the natural colors. The tight framing is adequate for this double portrait. The photo is well balanced.

What a lovely story, Grace, of these two beautiful Pumas. I love how you filled the frame. They look quite content with their home. Excellent lighting and focus showing great detail in their markings. Excellent composition. Suzanne

The eyes have it! My eyes were immediately drawn to first the cat in the rear who is looking right at me. The cat in the foreground looks like it's locked on to its' next dinner. The color is amazing , both of the cats and the complimentary background. Outstanding work.

Grace,
A beautiful picture of these two brother Cougars in the Zoo lying comfortably beside one another watching you & the other Zoo Visitors walking past their enclosure. Beautiful composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Comment from avmurray


These two pumas are so good looking, and you have pictured them so well. It is so sweet seeing them resting together, and they are also standing out really well against the background. The light is falling on them in a lovely way.

Your photo is very sharp with well defined details in the two pumas, and the exposure is spot on.

The tight cropping is perfect and the two animals are well placed within the frame. Indeed a lovely and well taken photo Grace, and with an excellent DOF.

A beautiful shot of two beautiful subjects. As a cat lover, this really speaks to my heart. I have seen my 2 smaller "pumas" sit like this on the couch. Your lighting is so pretty. Great focus to show the lovely details in their faces. So glad you shared these guys with us on FAR.
