Leopard Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

Pedant un safari au Kruger Park, j'ai été très chanceux de voir ce léopard sortir de son buisson comme si il voulait prendre une pose photo!

I think that seeing a WILD leopard this way, so close, must be a fantastic experience.
I can't stop watching his eyes !

Well captured. I can't imagine you had much time to consider anything apart from catching the moment. Focus on the face is perfect and inclusion of the surroundings sets the leopard in context.
It could be argued that it's slightly over exposed and a smaller aperture would have the leopard's tail in focus. The simple fact over-riding such argument is that you have obeyed Rule 1 - First capture the image!
Nice work.

Quelle chance. Apres quelques safaris en Afrique, je n`ai toujours pas vu de leopard. Je crois qu`ils sont tres difficiles a observer. Il est magnifique. Ses yeux sont incroyables. Bravo Fred.
