About the Image(s)
On a safari in Kenya, the driver was made aware of a leopard in a grouping of trees. We spotted the animal and waited for him move from the tree. After several minutes of no movement, it finally headed down to the ground. The camera used was a Canon R5 Mark II, 1/2000 sec at f/9, ISO 1250, at 400mm.

Great image of the leopard but he doesn't look too happy!! He is lovely and sharp and nicely framed by the tree trunks. His tail fills the negative lower right space well.

What a great opportunity and you made the best of it. The capture is very good. It is looking towards you which gives a connection between the animal and the viewer. The background is nicely out of focus. The branches frame the leopard.
