This one has been kicking around for a while as a few of you know, but this is a few frames on, although I'm about 98% happy. In fact those than know Grant might have seen the same leopard on his FB page! This was shot at a ridiculous angle, both in terms of the vehicle position and myself, not ideal by any means. I quite like the spots of light blue coming through to help break up the BKG and convey the canopy scene.
