Wildlife Image of the Week for the week ending February 15th, 2013: Rachel Hollander - A simple portrait

Congratulations Rachel!

This is perhaps one of the simplest images (due to comp, conditions, bg) taken during my multiple sightings of leopards on my August trip but it is also one of my favorites. Taken in the Timbavati Game Reserve, South Africa.
