Leopard | Kabini
Though a leopard on a tree has been on my wish list for long, I would have been happier with this if the out of focus tree trunk just behind the cat wasn't there or if we had a chance to move forward or backward to avoid it. However, sometimes in the wild, things have to loved the way they come :)
Processed this image while awaiting my flight back home to Hyderabad.
f/4, 1/160sec, ISO 400, EV +0.3, evaluative metering, full frame.
canon EOS 7D, canon EF 300 f/2.8 L IS II USM + 1.4x extender III, May 2012.

You are right. Without the OOF tree, this would have been a stunner. Neverthless, a nice potrait, and lovely composition. I specifically liked the tail - passing through the branches . . . Thanks for sharing.

It is always nice to see a leopard. When was the sighting? Morning or evening?
Nice composition. Surprised to hear that it is full frame.
Do you have one with a higher shutter speed? Wish the tree was not there in the background. However, as a photographer one can't control it. There is lot of noise in the background. Some more sharpness would have been great. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,

I have images at higher shutter speeds. This was among the first few images shot that evening. The sighting was at around 5:45pm. Like I said, I processed this on my uncalibrated laptop in the airport under bright light which isn't the best of conditions to process any wildlife image. Will post a few more very soon.
