This beautiful Cougar or Puma as it also known by resides at the Exotic Feline Rescue Center, which is located in Centerpoint, Indiana.

I could not get past the plants that were in the way, I tried to clone but it did not look right, and my very good friend, Jim - Jimbobedsel gave it a try but we both decided to forget the cloning.

Since he took the time to do some editing on it, I decided I would post his version of it.

I kind of thought the plants gave it a more natural appearance.

Hope you like it, and thanks for commenting.

It looks natural Tigz. I agree it would look better with an unobstructed view but this is definitely post worthy.

I have enjoyed your Exotic Cats Series and thought I would comment and wish you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving.

Know what you mean about the cloning. Sometimes it's just not worth the headache to do it.

You captured this wild cougar in what appears to be in it's natural home. He seems to fit right in with the plants.

Very good and excellent looking as well! The cat needs something natural around him to look wild and keeping the plants worked. Wonderful lighting and a great capture and work you two!

I always like natural ... glad both you & Jim decided to leave the plants in. Tells me a bit more about the habitat this lion lives in. Love how the warm surroundings compliment this beautiful cat. Nicely captured Sandi.

He was just a little shy, and was trying to hide. LOL. You got a good shot of him, Sandi.

That young girl does not look like she is in a good mood. She is a beautiful one though. Very good capture with perfect color and detail.

Great capture of this beauty! Think it is great having her behind the natural things in her environment.

No cloning needed with this shot Sandi. The natural capture is outstanding. Truly a fine capture.

It is in the cat's nature to hide and look for something to chase. You have made a good picture of the cat, with great clarity and focus. Great work Sandi.

No I look at that and know that cloning would be almost impossible without making it look funny. The shot is super as is! Love the look on his face. Great shot.

He's lovely, never the less. Not enough of him to use for cloning unless you used very small brushes.
