[THIS LEOPARD PREFERS TO BE VIEWED ON BLACK]
We just finished this year's second Namibia tour and are already preparing for our second Tigers & Leopards tour. Here's one from last year's tour.
We were following a female leopard when she suddenly decided to walk extremely close to our vehicle. So close, that I had way too much focal length to get the entire animal in my frame. I therefore decided to go for a very tight portrait. As she walked by, she briefly looked straight at me, and that's when I took this shot.
Color can be a distraction, and it was in this case, so I converted the image to black and white later.
