Really love the eye level POV and dappled sidelight here Sanjeev.
Framing is as good as can get (though a sliver more at the bottom wouldn't have hurt either).
For me, the best leopard shot you've posted from your Bots trip to date

Happy Independence Day, Sanjeev!
And Happy Leopard Day too... whew, another lovely surprise and you have raised the bar now big time, I expect all your future images to look like this
This is lovely, subject nested cosily among grasses in the shade of a tree, that gentle light barely touching its face... I like this very, very much, composition works for me, colours too, nice detail, sharpness is there, Morkel is right and you have nailed this one, I am so happy for you
Kind regards,

Hi Sanjeev - Happy Independence Day! I agree with Morkel and Gabriela, one of your best. The past couple of leopard images you've posted have really been outstanding in terms of IQ and pp. Nice handling of the dappled light and great eye level pov. Congrats on this one!
TFS,
Rachel

I like this one more than you recent side profile Sanjeev, the dappled lighting, good techs, detail & BG all come together nicely, well done on NOT cloning out the rear stick........this IS there habitat and we all know with leopards just how rare
we can capture completely uncluttered habitats.

Remarkably beautiful leopard, and the moment captured so well, Sanjeev. The quality of light is so soothing. A masterpiece.

Wonderful image mate! I love it!
Was there an opportunity to move a bit to the right to try and get the green BG right behind the cat rather than the green and sky mix?
Just a thought.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi Sanjeev, a gorgeous portrait and agree, perhaps one of your best.
Lovely light, nice soft/muted colours, great detail. Framing wise I would have preferred more to the left and less to the right. If this is FF then cropping tighter on the RHS, remove the overhanging branch & twig, plus the one on the back would I feel strengthen the whole image, but your call on the ethics.

Hi Sanjeev, love the image, excellent detail, it is sharp in the areas that matter, the eyes are beautifully clear, and enough space around the animal. The colours look very natural as well. Congratulations!
