But how do you know it's a male leopard? ronellevan - Nov, 11 2006 11:11am Oh my god. How did you get close enough for a picture like this. It's clear, in focus. You must be a professional... frenchfrog - Nov, 11 2006 01:11pm Miombo, Woaw! great shot, you should sell your pic to National Geographic! photokob - Nov, 11 2006 01:11pm extraordinary shot!!! rangutan - Nov, 12 2006 07:11am Excellent! You should certainly add photography as a hobby of yours in your profile. Which cameras and lenses do you use? magsalex - Feb, 11 2007 08:02pm I wouldn't want to upset this fella! kwongmei - Feb, 27 2007 12:02pm Wow, what a good catch! joe_schmidt - Mar, 04 2007 11:03am Great shot. Shows: wait till I change from tired to hungry... farnaz - Mar, 09 2007 12:03pm helloooooooooo! who dares to come close? ;) rangutan - Mar, 23 2007 07:03am Great pic but who is really the photographer? Zulu and Xhosa is not much spoken in Zimbabwe but rather Shona and Sindebele! Nkosilathi Dlamini please share much more of these adventures with us... rangutan - Mar, 23 2007 07:03am ... reveal, explain or share your wild adventures and experience with us? rangutan - Mar, 28 2007 10:03am Big yawns are usually AFTER hunts? This should be #1 at GLOBO if we could just confirm the photographer. Who is he? guitarplayer - Apr, 06 2007 10:04am Who ever took this had great nerve to get that close to a leopard like that. mortimer - Apr, 08 2007 04:04am guitarplayer, have you ever heard of telephoto lenses? And when you are on safari you get pretty close in the cars so this is no big deal here. mortimer - Apr, 08 2007 04:04am For such a great shot it's all about: equipment, skill, know how, experience, patience, timing and luck! fenomeno_mdl - Apr, 18 2007 11:04pm Impressive shot, that is truly amazing! aufgehts - Apr, 29 2007 08:04pm My, what scary teeth you have! heatherina - May, 05 2007 01:05pm wow.. i hope it is just yawning there :) dantrenner - Jul, 04 2007 03:07am I'm glad he's only yawning and not asking for a bite. krisek - Feb, 13 2008 01:02pm Truly great photograph! I am so jealous that I have never been able to snap a leopard like that! Excellent!
