Clouded Leopard @ National Zoo

    Shot with my new mc-30 wired remote, to try to eliminate camera wobble from pressing the shutter. I ordered it over the Summer and it finally came in.

    This is 1/160th @ 240mm...

      Great capture - it can be difficult to get an interesting shot from zoo cats - they are unfortunately so bored and confined in most zoos.
