We aren’t doing too bad, it has been lovely today, but black clouds scurrying across, but at least they aren’t dropping on us. We do quite well all things considered. hugs

Beautiful! Great capture, excellent clarity and composition. I love the lighting.
Krys Bailey replied
Thanks John! She was actually high in a tree in dappled shade which was causing horrors with the ISO I had to use (320 I think) – still, needs must! ;o)

We used to have a Burmese cat! I admit, she was a sweetie. Its just that I’m more of a rodent/rabbit person myself! Hugs to your little Burmese – they are super cats! Krys :o)

Excellent shot. I’ve seen this leopard at Marwell, I’m not far from it. It’s great place to visit. When I last went, she’d not long had a cub as well, wish I had my camera then!!!
Krys Bailey replied
Thanks Steve! Ah small world! I have some pictures of Kiska the cub too! ;o)
