Hi Ian
99% of my pics are digital - D70 this one, most of my newer work D200.

Thanks Callie - I wondered if it was a film shot Was it taken at dawn or dusk - there is something about the lighting!

Hi Ian
Precise time is on the exif, light was NOT too nice, so I flashed her, making her a bit more pronouced. But the light is very clear and intense here, no smog, and a that certain African quality to it. You will notice it is many pictures.

This is definitely a Leopard (you can see from the paw formations of the spots!) - so maybe I got the cheetah ID wrong in my last post.

No tigers in Africa - they're Asian

Hi Sue
Yes, leopard - Panthera pardus, the phantom of the thickets, many names, and as you said about the spot formation, I called it rosettes, but then, English is not my first language. My answer to you )previous) outlines the difference between the cheetah and the leopard.
Regards, and thanks for the liknk to the wetland.
