Leopard Sex

Both are very good but I prefer #1, just seems to show the awesome power of a big cat that can explode at any time. The one on top looks like he could do some real damage if he wanted to. The shot might not have frozen the action pin sharp but for me its all the beter because of it, I like the movement blur. I'm guessing the 2nd shot has the male sitting with the female standing? Big majestic looking fella isnt he.
 
It was awsome and very emotional to be there and see it happening. The happy couple spend most of the day together, the female goes to the males territory and initiates each coupling. The poor old lad get about 5 minutes of rest between each and took alot of pursuading by dusk. The male is the larger squarer faced cat.
 
Cooking fats! Not sure how long female leopards stay receptive for but at a guess, not very long, so a very lucky capture. Of course, like golf, the more you practice, the luckier you're likely to be.
