This Male Leopard posed in such an undisturbed manner, it surprised everybody as all of the Leopards in Kidepo had previously been very shy.

Hi Ken,
Nice scene. The straddling of the big limb by those hind legs put a big smile on my face. To me this image is hampered by a lack of contrast - there's some beautiful textures and lighting just trying to get out of this image but it feels a bit "beaten down". Have been noticing this lack of contrast in many of your posts in recent weeks...nice shots but feeling quite flat tonally.
Cheers...
Brad
