African Leopard Stretches Out at the Memphis Zoo

Details best viewed in Original Size.

I had been waiting for a long while on this Leopard, but he just slept on. I finally got tired and walked across the aisle to the tiger enclosure to try for a good shot of Tigress Kumari and/or her sisters. No sooner had I set up for the tigresses, my wife called me that this leopard was awake and moving. I rushed back and shot three very quick frames before he started walking away and showed me only his rear end. Of the three frames, this one and one more were worth keeping. With a few seconds more I could have done a better job of framing, but I'm glad that I got this questionably framed shot than no shot at all.
