My fave.
Big thanks to all the guys at Elephant Plains who work really hard to get us close to these animals. This conditions have been difficult with heavy rains, flooded roads and paths and the resultant huge increase in undergrowth.
Special thanks goes to Morné, our guide, who gave us plenty of sightings of this lovely lady but also offered us the chance to get another view when the light was good, so we could get some decent shots - which also resulted in us being able to watch her hunt.
Jason Empey and a lover's discourse added this photo to their favorites.

Well I like it, even if it's in the least interesting set. Much closer and you'd risk claw marks on your lens hood. It's rare to see leopard photos that aren't cluttered with branches or leaves in front. Envious.
