Its a very diverse photograph and well shot. You got the movement and the expression. My only preference would be to crop it more so the surrouning shadow sand and bushes dont share as much space. I feel it will produce a very fine and detailed result without what I am finding a bit distracting. Having said that it is a good photo, your focus is good and on close up the fur capture and expression perfect.

I love the teen leopard's coat.
So beautiful! I hope this leopard found its mom.
Is he walking on a concrete surface? Good capture!

Comment from JerseyJudi
The look on this cats face says where is my mom. He looks scared and unsure. Very sharp image, great color. Did you consider a little crop maybe from the left side so the cat wasn't in the center of the image. Not anything on that side that adds to this great cat. Nice image! You are very diverse in your work...love that!

Bless his heart. I would be afraid too. You come up with the most amazing shots. I want to live where you live. The leopard is adorable. I like that he is in the shadow and not the sun. He does look a bit dazed or worried. Such a cutie that I am sure I wouldn't want to meet up with anywhere.

Comment from Daphne Oberon
Oh my, what a capture. I hope he does okay. I suppose mom might be in estrus and he might be in danger from the tom's. Not sure these big cats breed as prolifically as the domestic cats however, probably not... (I'd love a copy of this one! daphneoberon@gmail.com) My supreme admiration!

A beautiful shot. I like the white balance and the very fine detail in the leopard. He is clearly on a grand adventure and it shows in his eyes.
