Spotted Deer - Panning image

[Bibhav Behera]

This is also from Bandipur. The fourth safari was pretty disappointing with no major sightings. Decided to make best of the situation and tried some panning images.

Full frame image. Comments and critiques welcome.

Nice pan. Nicely captured. How are the sightings in Bandipur now? Thanks for sharing.

We sighted just one leopard in all of 4 safaris.
Rest were the usual sightings - Elephants, Chital, Sambhar, Gaur, Mongoose, CSE, CHE, Black Naped Hare etc.
No Tigers although the Naturalist confirmed sightings in the previous few Safaris. Seems I have bad Cat Luck! I guess I once crossed the path of a cat ;)

Nice to see you trying slow shutter speed pans. Without the other deer in the background the image would have been much better.

At least you saw a leopard. I have been in situations when I didn't see any predator for days and even if I saw it was not worth a shot.
