This Bronx snow leopard is looking out through glass in what is usually far too shady a setting for any sort of dramatic capture. It is not often that any of the snow leopards come up to the glass. Even more rare are the occasions that one of the big cats looks through the glass at the people.
On this day everything fell into place and as an added bonus the rocky cliff where to snow leopards can usually be found was getting directly sunlight and acting as a reflector. That warm light on one side of the face made this photo an instant favorite of mine.

This is the first time I've been able to get good close ups of the female Amur Leopard. She usually hides behind rocks or underbrush, but it was feeding time and she was waiting for her dinner.

Amurs are the rarest big cat.
The morning of day 13, our final day in Kenya. We have only a few hours before we need to catch a noon flight to Nairobi, so the question was how best to use our time.
We had a discussion the previous evening, and the consensus was to see if we could find a leopard, the one animal we had not had a chance to get a good look at. Our tour guides did a terrific job leveraging their Maasai connections to track down one. They made it look so easy and routine – of all the African animals, the extremely secretive and lonely leopard is the hardest to find.
We had great lighting, and not only we found a leopard, we also got very close to it, and on one occasion, it even went right past our vehicle, and got to within about 4-5 feet.
This is such an amazing and rare animal to see, so I took a 100+ shots. Here are a few.
One of a litter of 2 snow leopard cubs born to Himani (Mom) and Vijay (Dad) on 4/20/13 at the Cape May County Zoo in Cape May Court House, New Jersey. The male cub named Tushar moved to the Binghamton Zoo at Ross Park in Binghamton, New York on 4/16/14. The female cub named Ramani moved to the Roosevelt Park Zoo in Minot, North Dakota on 5/14/14.
She is staring somewhat mournfully at the hyena that has walked away with the impala carcass she expected to eat for dinner. She will not protest, and thus live to hunt as gain.
I just went through my older photos and so i wanted to add some of them here..
