YOUNG MALE MALAYAN TIGER
These are a highly endangered species, and the rescue center has this young male tiger, which they hope will breed with their already existing female Malayan tiger.

BLACK LEOPARD
A new arrival at the rescue center. She was very friendly and very flirty, rolling about on her back and meowing, then staring at you as if she might be hungry. A magnificently beautiful animal

That's a good job. With just 2 lights, it is more than a good job it is impressive. The edit is very good too, except I like eyes to look more natural, the whites that is. Here they are too white, a bit. I would also crop out, or clone out, the small dark shape at the very bottom right corner. Five seconds of easy work, so a nothing of a job, which I bet you intended to do and just forgot about.
The only thing that I might suggest apart from the above is the power of your modelling light, which should be reduced a bit, so her eyes dilate a little, making the eyes look more attracted/attractive. Yes, her irises are very pretty but we respond at a primevil level to dilated eyes, which means the person it attracted to us. And who does not want to feel that a beauty model is attracted to them.
Excellent work with your camera and your post-production.
Thank you for taking the time to comment on it Ian, I really appreciate it. I will pay more attention to the whites and about the modeling lights to watch out for the dilation.
Indeed I totally forgot about the black thingy on the right bottom corner.
This is brilliant, how long did it take you to D&B ?
Thank you very much Misheck, I usually dont have much time to spend in retouching, so when I finally decide to sit down and edit some beauty shots, it takes me quite some time. I believe I spend almost an hour with this one.
