Raining leopards on Indiawilds ... amazing one, love the feel of image, shallow dof and inclusion of surroundings give nice feel.
I am not sure about tree in left foreground, sometime it is distracting and sometime adds to the image.

Murugun, I too thought on similar lines but somehow I feel that would be completely different image. this images itself is unquie.

Very nice image. Wish it were walking towards you & would have been wonderful. Better luck next time.

I think this is a fine and effective environmental shot that conveys the spirit of the animal in it's environment. I also this this meets the requirements of a good picture, i.e., it tells a story. Why has the leopard stopped? Has it seen something? What will happen next?

Nice shot Sabyasachi. The leopard looking at the camera would have been nice but this too tells a beautiful story. Very nice.
