Have a wonderful Tuesday Y'all..:)
A Leopard during a hot day at Thoiry park (France).
As I was far away, this is a crop of the center of the photo.
The photo was done in a forest, light was not so great but not too bad.
I was over the leopard on a bridge in the trees.

Our third major leopard encounter was with a lovely female African leopard Panthera pardus pardus). It was nearly 7pm and the light was beginning to fade, but she was still clearly visible lying on a branch. After a while she sat up and looked out beyond our vehicles. I think dinner was on her mind. She must have seen something because she suddenly bounded down the tree to the ground, walked a bit through the grass, and then disappeared.

Here's another from last month's trip to Denver zoo. I love Leopards. What a beautiful animal this guy is. Shot this with my 300mm f2.8 lens with a 2x converter, making it into a 600mm.
This last African leopard (Panthera pardus pardus) sighting of the trip. This large animal was briefly spotted entering thick brush as the light was fading. Maasai Mara National Reserve, Kenya, Africa. Conservation status: Vulnerable
Not the sharpest image as taken through glass at Marwell zoo but how many places could you see a sight as gorgeous as this.
Amur Leopards are the most endangered big cats on the planet. It's thought there are as few as 30 of them left in the wild and there are only 100 in captivity. I was very privileged, therefore, to be close to this beautiful animal at the Wildlife Heritage Foundation in Kent yesterday during one of their wonderful photographic days. Huge thanks to Lillian for organising the day.
I will probably be posting quite a few more images from this day, often of the same animals, so please don't feel obliged to comment on them. I completely understand that there are only so many ways you can say 'beautiful cat'. :)
This Leopard was moving so fast across the road, a matter of point and shoot.
A lucky sighting.
Kruger National Park
I took this photograph of a leopard that we tracked for about an hour and a half in South Africa. The leopard was on the prowl along the ground for a while, climbed up into a tree, then climbed back down the tree. At the base of the tree, I caught this photo of the leopard looking into the distance in what seemed to be a pensive mood. I thought the yellow-green backdrop with a bit of bokeh added some interest to the photo as well. The safari was in incredibly wonderful and amazing experience - and seeing leopards up close was deeply moving.
This photo, taken by my wife happened at 7:00 in the morning on the S25 near Marloth Park. Not bad for A D3100.

So in the time I had to kill between waiting for the train back to London yesterday, I decided to go to the Menagerie De Zoo ~ Jardin Des Plants, in the centre of Paris as ya do & I was rewarded by being able to capture the North Chinese leopard...it was a good day.:)
Have a great Tuesday Y'all..:)
This young lady allowed Todd Gustafson and I to approach closer and closer, using shorter and shorter lenses. In reviewing my shots from this year I wanted to post this one after seeing a similar shot of Todd's, to emulate a truly great photographer.
Celui-ci n'a pas trop apprécié ma chanson... sa tête... Clovis fait la même quand il n'ose pas me dire que je suis ridicule :-D
Wild South Africa
Kruger National Park
Wild male leopard against a backdrop of autumn coloured Mopane trees.
The leopard is a very adaptable predator that lives in dense forest and open ground in large parts of Africa and Asia. Its prey ranges from small animals to antelope and other mid-sized prey.
With only about 130 alive in the entire world (100 of those in captivity), this Amur leopard is extremely rare and very precious. Taken on a photography day at the Wildlife Heritage Foundation in Kent.
