Needed to revisit some old files, as Jon A inspired me to lookout something. Taken with Rachel we came across this young male Leopard early one morning in Londolozi. What initially bugged me about the shot was some elephant dung that just got into frame, so it has now been removed. Yes, SS was low, but this I think was on a bean bag and with cooperative folk not moving, you can, (when required), not go for higher speeds. Since then it doesn't worry me if I push the techs, the camera can take it and PP has moved on in the last few years and I would rather have a slightly 'noisy' image than a soft one.
Thanks to those who posted or viewed the previous thread.
