jaapv Posted November 3, 2008 Share #1 Posted November 3, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Kafue National Park, Zambia. Unlike Kenia, baiting is considered unethical, so this was genuine find. DMR, 105- 200 and M8, 90 AA. I think the M8 is the winner here Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fotografr Posted November 4, 2008 Share #3 Posted November 4, 2008 Bit close to the action there, aren't you? Nice shots, however! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted November 4, 2008 Share #4 Posted November 4, 2008 Jaak - Very good catches. Too bad that "spotlight game drives" provide very difficult, overly contrasty light, but it did give you this wonderful opportunity. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaapv Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share #5 Posted November 4, 2008 In that last shot I instructed another vehicle to come in and provide backlight on the Impala, otherwise it would never have shown up. As it is I am quite pleased with the result. And spotlight is vastly superior to flash imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

michali Posted November 7, 2008 Share #8 Posted November 7, 2008 Jaap- Great shot. No question the M8 wins, you're right. There's a good healthy leopard population in the Zambian game parks. Leopards are my favorite animals to photograph in the wild, when you can eventually find them. Well done. MIKE Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharookh Posted November 7, 2008 Share #10 Posted November 7, 2008 Jaap - You're very lucky to have caught this moment. It took me 5 years of annual safari in Kenya and Tanzania to finally "spot" a leopard leave alone shooting it at dinner!! Great moment! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
michali Posted November 7, 2008 Share #11 Posted November 7, 2008 Thanks Mike . Given the time of your post: No game drive this morning? Jaap- I'm in France at the moment, so definitely no game drive today. regards MIKE Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
