Fairly typical "leopard in tree" shot, but well-handled from a techical point-of-view and with good light on the subject. There is a vertical "head and shoulders" crop within the frame that has more impact imho, than this environmental shot. I hope I am not coming over as being too critical; when presented with the same opportunity, I would probably have come away with some shots like this.

Best wishes

I love it just as it is. perfectly sharp, great light and, far from typical, she's actually alert and watching something and not asleep :)

Well done.

That leopard knows how to spend an afternoon. Great shot!
