I know, a lot of leopards lately, but if I’m going to over post a species, why not the most attractive of all the African cats. This leopard was waiting for the sun to set before heading out on a nighttime hunt. I love when the horizon is hazy at sunset and the big orange sun is fairly weak, allowing me to capture detail in the foreground.

Love it, Sean. It’s okay to post these gorgeous creatures from time to time. Most of us will never get to see them apart from your blog. I personally
Ike them better than those prehistoric lizards!
