[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is the same leopard featured in my earlier photo. There was another leopard in this photo but as it was obscured partially by the undergrowth I decided to crop it out.
This animal is always a special sighting in the Kruger park and it is very seldom that one gets a chance to take a decent photo as they are invariably on the move in thick undergrowth.

Hi Mike,
Good job as it is indeed difficult to see these felines properly.
Good exposure and sharpness. This looks like a young animal, with his clear, somehow inocent eyes and not so large head.
Well done and TFS
