8th Place [tie]
Up close with a beautiful creation

by

Tarangire NP, Tanzania

This photo was taken on the 7th Oct 2004 in Tarangire National Park, Tanzania. It took us 2 days to search the park for a leopard. This was the first time I had seen one in the wild. Missed it on my previous trip to Masai Mara (2003). Anyway, wanted to share this photo with you all. The only change made to the photo is 1. contrast/brightness, 2. Colour balance and 3. addition of a separate background. The original background was white (due to clouds). The photo was taken with a 300D + Sigma f4 100-300. Regards Hassan

Wow, what a great capture, Hassan! And to think this wasn't taken at a zoo. Good work! Helen
