Love the pose! AND some of the longest whiskers I've seen on a Leopard :eek:.
Looks quite a young one as well. Where in Botswana were you Chas?
I'm off to Mapula myself next September, can't wait!

Cheers

A gorgeous shot Chas! Love the relaxed pose, the eyes and composition. Am not compeletely sure, but could this use a bit more contrast (in the midtones?)? Wouldn't change anything else though, excellent!

Hey Marc,

It was taken in Moremi. I head back to Botswana with a group on the 24th of this month to
Moremi, Kwai, Savuti, Chobe, Jao and more

Great composition, mood and details. Maybe a tad more saturation?

[Julie Kenward]

Very nice, Charles! That is a terrific expression you captured. I agree that it might need a bit more saturation as even the plant in the foreground looks a little bit washed out. Other than that...excellent!

[Peter Buntman]

Super imageand magic pose, agree on a bit more saturation on just the leopard and did you do a blur on the BG?
