A nice image. Would have preferred eye contact though. The background seems a bit fuzzy. Can you share your Post Processing flow?

Sighting a leopard is always nice. Unfortunately, the leopard is looking the other way. Else, it would have been good. However, this is how wildlife photography is. At times, you get everything perfectly positioned, and at other times you see only see a fleeting glimpse of a leopard.

There seems to be blurring at the top right and left portion.

Given the position of the shadow, I was expecting a higher shutter speed. Is this a big crop? Look forward to more.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

Liked the running pose. The mid-air legs nicely captured. Did it walk away?Could you get any photographs with eye contact? Would like to see more..
