It was in October last year, the 19th, in the camelthorn tree where the branch is broken and has fallen into the road. The road goes round the tree now where in the past it went under the branch that broke. You are right, it was between Montrose and Rooibrak. The repost looks good and I like the crop. When are you off to the KTP.

With what you had to work with, very nice image. Like the way the leopard is looking down.

Well done Mark I am all to familiar with those difficulties in trying to get an image. Love the pose and you managed good detail and colour with the difficult BG. Like Morkels repost compwise and processing.

Hi Mark, good open view of the cub, and we all know how difficult it is to get the 'perfect' shot. I like the inquisitive look, and also like what Mork did with the sharpening.

Would you believe it! My friend and I heard about a leopard "somewhere near Montrose" and headed out from Twee Rivieren to check it out. He had eaten some bad food at lunch and started feeling very sick...we went to Montrose but turned around there having no idea where the leopard cub was supposed to be and if it was even still around...we later found out it was just about 2km from where we turned around
.
Heading out on the 19th November if all goes according to plan. Spending 8 quick nights then back...but heading back for 2 weeks end of February 2012 too...when are you going??

Mark - nice cuteness factor here and you did well under the conditions. Shame about the people getting out of their vehicles. I like what Morkel has done with the repost.
TFS,
Rachel

Hi all,
Thanks for the comments.
I should be in the KTP around the 29th December for two weeks, it sounds as though we just missed each other, Morkel. I can't wait to go and I should have lots of images to process.
With many thanks, Mark.

Enjoy, Mark! Yes we missed each other but we would not have known about each other at that time
