It looks great! I definatly do feel the tension, as if they are in a short break during the fight. If you bend the cat's front legs even further, it could look more ready to jump (be carefull not to stretch back legs or it would then look like a playfull dog). Maybe you can pose it so that not only the head is reaching, but also the body is bend. A bit bolder camera angle could also improve, but dont overdo it, or it would look like an action scene. Then it is better to keep it like this as a contrast for the next scene, as this angle conveys a moment of clarity. A last thing i could see is to move them a bit further appart in the frame. It would show that they keep within safe distance from each others. Just take what you can use from my comment.

Hi Yury! I just wanted to say that I really like your picture, it could be an illustration to a story. To me it looks a bit like they dance around each other, measuring the other. It feels like a very balanced and lovey composition. with an undercurrent of a interesting story. To get more of the feeling of being afraid though, you could try to make both their postures more tense. Maybe have the humans upper body leaning back and away more, like if they are bracing for an attack. Also, an easy way to make it feel more threatening could be to give the big cat an open jaw, like it’s snarling in a warning. Great job though, I like your style!
