In the case of splendor in the grass, I would wonder how the two animals managed to get in there without trampling the grass?? There is an odd junction between the two animals. The DOF also seems a bit deep for a 200 at f2.8.

Well spotted, Chris!
The junction between the cheetahs is an initial masking fault that I missed. Photoshop didn't see them as one joined object so I added them together and missed the fluffy bosom .....as did Photoshops object mask.  
Ive started overlaying the masked object over the AI layer as there are often weird artefacts at the edge of the mask (that's what you saw between them) but it merely overlayed the incomplete cutout. :banghead:
Ive posted the corrected image, without embellishments, below.

On the matter of 200mm @f2.8 dof .....you would probably be quite right if it were a full frame (ie the camera was nearer to the subjects) but it is a 50% crop, so you should expect to 'keep' the greater dof from the greater camera distance in the final cropped image.... that's my story anyway lol.



The cheetahs came down the tree along a branch and dropped in.

As my mother use to say...Ive "got a plaster for every sore" :lol:
