p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Getting a leg up


Well I'm back since late this morning after about 24 hours of traveling from the bush.
I know I missed tons of outstanding posts and will catch up asap.
So before Tim gets back and blows you all away with what he photographed I decided to post just one. A big male leopard killed a zebra probably 15 minutes before we arrived and judging by the blood on its face it must have been quite a struggle. Much more to come over the next months...and yes it will take that long.
Eric

If travel is good for you, you'll live forever Eric! Keep renewing the prescription, cause the opportunity of viewing images from you like this is very much looked forward to. Excellent shot! The long winter months promise to contain great viewing from forum posts like this.

Great image, Eric. The prey put up a good fight, I guess.

Can't wait to see more from you.

Eric the leopard hunter!!! Great start to the safari photo playbook. I know that Tim will wow us, but you fired the first salvo and a fine one it is. That is one big leopard. What a specimen to take down a zebra. I'll be watching for more. Don

Impressive image of a gruesome, yet natural action. What a beautiful coat on the leopard--just don't get too close!

Eric, I am disappointed...I had counted on you posting via a satellite link from Bostwana, or at least from the United Club in Jo'burg.

Seriously...this is a fantastic beginning of what I'm sure will be a stunning series. The image suggests kind of a complacent savagery, but, hey, this is Africa.

Welcome back!

Awesome first salvo Eric, well played.

I know we'll be seeing images from your trip for months to come, and that's a beautiful thing.
Your move Tim.
