An side on view of 'Kwela Kwela' the female leopard Rachel posted recently. I just got captivated by her gorgeous eyes and fixed gaze. I just retained the curve of the upper jaw/mouth without cutting it, but just wanted that eye. The items embedded in the fur are foliage from the ground, not bad cloning. She was a real beauty and allowed us to have full access and with her cub too, sadly after this encounter she has never been seen since.
Thanks to those who viewed or posted a comment on the previous thread.
