Beautiful. To photograph a leopard in the open is really lucky. The eye contact is great. Seems it was relaxing. You could have placed it a bit more to the right. Would love to see more from this series. How long was the sighting?

Lovely sighting. One doesn't see leopards for so long and so close. I wish you had got it in better light. The shutter speed was quiet low. It is good that you saw it in the clear in the ground. Eye contact is nice. I agree that more space in the direction it is looking would have further enhanced this image. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Sabyasachi

I like the beautiful colors of this big cat.

It seems leopard has become common for Vishwanath. TFS.
