28-AUG-2004 Ron Lutz II

08-28-2004

Pittsburgh, PA

My first Saturday in the Burgh to myself, I fully intended on just cleaning up my apartment and relaxing as well as putting all my gear away from my Pennsic trip. Needless to say, I didn’t stay at home but ended up going over to the zoo to just walk around. I snapped this leopard right after a heavy rain storm. This cat was agitated and when it saw a father walk up with a small child, it only had eyes for that child. If I were that father I would have shuddered. I was amazed that he didn’t notice this feline eyeing the kid so hungrily!

Oh, I never did get around to cleaning up as I had too many photos to process from Pennsic…LOL

Totally amazing

No tripod was used. The lens has IS (Image Stabilization) built in and helps keep the image sharp.

Congratulation & vote - 1st class capture. Was a tripod used?
