I totally buy in the first five, Jim! (y)(y)(y)
 
Excellent images looks as though you had a fantastic safari(y). Shame about the twig/branch across the face of the leopard in number 4.

I know Chris. That's the most frustrating thing I found about the safari photography was the locations available for getting shots/ close to the animals often have bits of nature getting in the way of the ideal shot. It was a safari where seeing the animals was the main aim- I've already started looking at a photo safari trip which is a bit more dedicated to getting the shot you want and not simply seeing the animals. Saving pennies now.

I've got another image from slightly later in the feeding sequence which I've shown below- a bit more gorey but the heads up away from the twig. I cant decide if I prefer the original for the red and the ability to crop tighter and fill the frame or the secondwih a better, if looser, uninterupted view. Was surprised at the lack of blood during the feeding.

What an honour to see these wonderful animals in the wild. Great set but the first's a cracker.
