I was watching this image at full screen size and I have to say that, to me, this image hasn't a reasonable quality. The subject matter is okay (cute and nice), but it seems to be that you've cropped the original image in such a way that the remaining and posted image is pretty unsharp.

An excellent subject, Michelle. I like how the lions paw is holding her head.
Unfortunately it isn't clear. Maybe you could go back and take another shot. I do like the animal images and you have some good ones in your gallery :)
