It's one thing to capture a nice "clean" photo of a leopard out in the open (I do love those).

It's entirely another to capture the essence of that most elusive and stealthy feline in the African bush in a single frame.

This image kind of does the latter for me.
Your thoughts?

Nikon D3s
Nikkor 500mm f4 VR-II

Great use of monochrome here Morkel, the sharp eye delivers great impact.
