Weve had a wonderful year at the ranch when it comes to bobcats.  We are seeing cats coming in to the waterholes about every two weeks.  Its been great.

Here the cat was so close that I had the chance to do an intimate portrait with the D810 and 500mm w/ 1.4 teleconverter.  Image cropped from horizontal to vertical.

Santa Clara Ranch, South Texas.

Nikon D810 w/ Nikon 500mm f4 & 1.4 tele-converter

Beautiful detail in this portrait. I really like the framing, there are some wonderful lines and patterns in the composition.
