A time to Relax

[Shyamala Kumar]

Leopard in kabini . This female leopard chose to lounge high in the canopy above quite oblivious of the stir she had created below Nikon 850+150-600 F/8 ,ISO1800, 1/250s Aug 2018

Lovely sighting. Reducing the green tinge will enhance the image. One can see how the leopard can even park itself in smaller branches. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Lovely picture of the relaxing leopard, Shyamalaji. Like the way it has perched itself on the branches and the causal 'matter of fact' look on its face. The focus seems to have been locked towards the lower part of its body and the branches below, the head looks slightly out of focus (not sure if its my monitor though). Thanks for sharing.

Adding a little 'thrill' to her usual sojourn ! Or, wary of a pack of wild dogs nearby ! A rare posture. Nice take. Thanks for sharing. SaktiWild

Wow such a unique pose. Loved the way she is balancing herself with the tail on one side and the forelegs on the other. Also the low angle is giving a different perspective. Agree with Murugan, I think the AF point is on the body and as the head is slightly behind, it is not covered in the depth of field. How long was the sighting? Thanks for sharing.

Nice pic from Kabini!At Kabini one most often would not get disappointed in sighting a Leopard!
