Fantastic sighting. Nice peeping pose. Can't expect the leopard to be more closer. Without the intervening bushes, the leopard would have looked bigger. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Oh no... Same image again.

A very peculiar behaviour of the leopard to peep from behind the bushes. Wish it had come out in the open. Thanks for sharing.

The light is nice. Leopards are so elusive. Its tougher to sight a leopard than a tiger. Agree that had the intervening bushes been absent, you could have got a nice shot of this beauty.
