Hi Gio -- What a terrific moment to capture, loved it. This must have happened quite fast and i feel the sharpness i not quite there on the Leopard, looks a bit off. For record purpose this is fantastic but the IQ is affected . Is it also a big crop ?

Share more from the series if you have them .

TFS !

[Giovanni Frescura]

Hello I have also two shoots more...CoIt is no a crop ..so could be no a good pp.
Whyt you say I could very making it again ?
Thanks

[haseeb badar]

Sorry I didn't get you with the last sentence Gio ?

[Giovanni Frescura]

About this shoot have you any tips to make better pp ?
I tried again and attacched it.
Another problem, for me, is the composition..too much central ..but i no fund onother option

What an interesting moment! Good timing to catch that mid-air pose.
Where was this taken?

Repost looks a bit sharper but might suffer from contrast being overdone. Without seeing the full resolution, it does seem that the leopard's body is in focus and the face not. f8 would certainly have helped.

I am in trouble for composition a bit too much central

[Basil Dardagan]

It is a spectacular moment VERY VERY well captured. Mate with such fast action I dont think you should crit yourself for composition(if you dont have additional space) or F5/F8. WELL DONE ON ACHIEVEING A VERY GOOD IMAGE OUT OF SUCH FAST ACTION !! However if you do have the space then you could allow more space for the prey to run into

[Giovanni Frescura]

Thanks a lot...I have a bit (no too much) space under...

[John Mack]

Great timing. Nice to see the prey. The pose on the leopard is very nice.

HI Gio,

Based on the RAW file that you provided , here is my humble attempt for a RP.

The FP is on the front left paw and hence the subject is soft . Reduced the warmth and tried to maintain the morning feel with light setting in , exact colours will be more accurate in your mind as you were there .

Would be great if the Mods also chime in with their comments .
