I'm assuming this shot is from a camera you found lying around after the original photographer has been devoured by the cat...

Well then, the original photographer did a wonderful job of capturing the leopard crisply, although he must've been focusing on a stone in the ground when the leopard walked into frame.. May he rest in peace..

And congrats - good find on the camera :)

beautiful cat, he really pops off the background, not sure about the bush to the right but don't think it could be helped

Great shot but the border is a bit bold.

Nice! My only critique would be to crop out a little more of the bush on the right. The color and spots of the leopard are so vivid and strong, I don't feel as if the bush adds much to the picture.

Superb. So lucky to see one like this, looks like it's natural African winter scrub/ Tail up and eyes engaged. Great exposure and PP. Fabulous.
