WOW! Just super Eric. Looks like you had a full set of studio lights and knew how to use them ~ Ron
Hey Ron...thanks but I can assure you if I tried studio lights I would have mucked it up totally...fortunately Mother Nature's studio set me up and Canon took care of the rest.

Eric, that is just as perfect an image as I can imagine.
And the look it's giving you is terrifying to some of us who haven't seen it first hand enough to realized that the look doesn't necessarily mean the beast is going to attack YOU.
You need a warning for such posts; something like: "You may want to change into brown trousers before looking at this image."
I count 13 looong whiskers on each side of its upper jaw. I've heard that the exact numbers are for a purpose (I know the general purpose of long whiskers in cats- so that's not what I mean).
Got any input to the question? (Or is that just what happens in my dreams when I watch too many nature TV programs in the evening)?

Thanks so much for the kind words Charlie. I do not know why that precise number and I did do a search to find out...My trite answer would just be "because God made them that way" or at least their relatives that evolved into leopards (covering all bases )

Thank you and I am always thrilled when I can come away with a leopard shot that I would print big.

Jeff, that is very kind of you. I do love my big cats and this one does hold a special place after the time spent with her.
