One of the first times I used gels.
So, this set I tried to work with color. Actually tried to set a color pallet and used gels to help.

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

Well executed shot, which has the theatrical / burlesque vibe, including the look of the follow spot and the coloured theatrical lights. The only suggestion I can make is that on stage the lighting is usually very contrasty, with plenty of deep shade, especially when the subject/scene is of the night. So, a deep vigniette and or other effects to create darkness might have added more theatre. Follow spots are also more or less invariably very blue. See below. My version is quite dark, so will only look its best against a dark background, so please click on it. It makes it so much better.
However, very well done.
Looking good.
Too burned. Follow Ian's suggestions =) personally, I'd put lights in front of her, up; while you put them on the right (watching). In this way I'd probably create more shadows, which fit better the image to me.
Anyway, good job!
I had a beauty dish up front above and a parabolic to the right to fill, definitely could have cut used the light to the right less.
