Description
I am sure that there could be nothing better than to capture this secretive big cat in the wild one of my dreams, perhaps nigh impossible for even the best! So had to contend with this humble effort of one at Antwerp Zoo with my friends Ger and Wife Ilona where the bars and poor light made it difficult.. Anyway thanks for taking time to view, and for any comments

Wow, incredible and awesome shot of a superbly elegant animal.... the lighting is perfect as well as the depth of field ! Magnificent !!
AMAZING !!!!!!!
beautifully taken .-))
I have a dream as well....to capture one of the beavers that hang out in my backyard....then deport his ass far far away from here. LOL. What a beautiful kitty this is. And your capture is phenomenal. Love how its not looking into the camera as you see more than often on other zoo-shots. Excellent indeed! #:O)
A great capture, impressive!!!!!!!
a fantastic photo ! so clear ! bravo !
Given your conditions (bars and the like) this is an absolute, beautiful capture. So peaceful and yet still maintaining that very powerful stare. This is superb:)
Excellent! You will have to do a lot of leg work to match this in nature. The intent look and almost crouching pose is also very special.
Just as most of us see abandoned items or vacant buildings as available so it is with ferocious wild animals which are just waiting to work for us. Not only are we the owner we are also the boss.
Amazing, what an impressive animal! Fascinating creatures indeed and so wonderfully captured! Superb!!!
W O W !!! This is simply a breathtaking shot, POV & Details are perfect!!! Exceptional as always!!
they are so incredible..great work
Sublime candid pose. Do you remember that famous shot of 2 African bull elephants fighting? Shot at 1/40s if I remember correctly & blurred as hell. Some of the most awarded photos are shot in less than perfect conditions. This is a real beauty & needs no apologies!! I'm truly glad you resisted the temptation to sharpen it artificially...
A beautiful shot of this fantastic creature.Something about animals and birds of prey that sets them aside from all others.great photography old friend .Have a great day
Under the conditions you had to endure you pulled this off just fine...nice pose and clean shot as always.....Way to go Dan! Aloha!
Lovely capture ! I am glad I don't see the bars on this image :) Perfect shot !!~BRAVO~!!
What a brilliant taken animal photography! A real splendid shot! Bravo!!!
Fascinating study of this beautiful creature. I keep hearing rumours of big cats on Dartmoor but no sightings yet :-)
Ciao Danny !!!!! I'm back but so busy to post on RR for the moment. But I've seen some posts, and of course yours... This serie of all those big cats is gorgious. I love this one in particular, so impressive and majestic Leopard. The design on him are marvelous, with the details. Could I touch him ? lol. Superb and always with a perfect light. Love it ! Have a nice evening my friend. Hugs
grrrr... superb shot:-)
Nice relaxed pose. ;-)
Oh what a stunning leopard. i feel I can touch him. Thanks for taking the time with such a difficult shot. May I ask did you delete bars etc in post (if so how does one do that) or bravely pole the camera through risking life and lens??? Jenny?
