Description

I took this photograph whilst on Safari in Kenya. We were walking through the bush when I spotted this gorgeous cat just a few metres from where we were. It was not in the least bit troubled by us. It stood there for a few seconds and then gently turned and stalked away..unforgettable. I hope you like it.

Awesome shot, especially as leopards are supposed to be quite difficult to catch on film. Great composition too, got him centred, blending in with the surroundings.

Whose the Cheater? You're not supposed to shoot unless attacked. Sorry! It an absolutely splendid picture, and I guess the adrenaline was flowing just a wee bit?

Thanks Glenn, different camera..I had upgraded by then. I was sooooo pleased to have seen it, our guide told me it was the first one he had seen for 5 years. I was not really frightened until afterwards...but I should have had my brown safety trousers on lol :) have lovely weekend all x
