leopard

this is just so cool. Timing is sublime

What a fantastic wildlife photograph! The timing is superb catching the rabbit on the run and the leopard pouncing with all four feet off of the ground. Where was this image taken, and how did you position yourself to capture it with the 70/200?

Excellent action capture and perfectly timed to get the mid-air pounce!

Well done.

Carol.

Great capture!

Hello thanks..
in Kwahi (Botswana) early in the morning. By a landcruiser ..
the rabbit was kiled by the mother of the leopard a bit more on the left
I like this shoots for the moment but i no like composition becouse the subjects are too much central but I am no able to reduce it better.
The photo is no a crop.
Thanks for help and tips for the best

Cracking shot Gio, love the concentration on the Leopard's face.

Amazing capture- so unique to get the cat and rabbit in a dynamic action shot!

Thanks, Gio. What a great image! I can see a version of this cropped on the right to move the leopard more off center, and actually I think a square crop with the leopard and rabbit on the right would also work nicely. Mere suggestions, as the image is beautiful as is.

thanks

Awesome!  The image grabs and holds the viewer's attention.

I agree with Ron's suggestion.

Nice capture. Can you try cropping the wood stump off on the left or cloning it. I know others have suggested a square crop, it may also work.
