I really like this one, Ken. Great action shot and the leopard is perfectly in focus. I especially like the flying bark. I do wish that the leopard's head had been turned a bit more towards you, but our subjects don't always completely cooperate. I did notice a slight green cast to the leopard, probably due to all the grass. I took the liberty of changing the white balance and adjusting shadows and highlights a touch. See what you think.

Great "stopped" action shot! Beautiful capture, focus, color and subject.

Great action captured in a superb manner, flying bark is a big plus !
May prefer to add some more canvas at thr top.

You had to smile upon initial review to see you nailed this timing!
