www.squiver.com This was shot at the end of another spectacular day at Sabi Sand game reserve, South Africa. We had just finished the first half of our photo tour and taken thousands of tiger, cheetah and serval shots, so we were ready for some other kitties. Sabi Sand is without a doubt the best place in the world to find and photograph leopards, and as always it lived up to its reputation – daily leopard sightings and excellent photo opportunities. We had followed this leopard for a short while, all the time hoping it would get up onto a termite mound or a tree to get some shots of it in the golden light. Of course it didn’t – it’s a cat. As it got to the perfect tree, the sun had already set, so I asked our guide to position our vehicle on the other side so we could shoot it as a silhouette with the sunset colours behind it. The perfect ending of a perfect day. – – – If you would like to photograph tigers, leopards, cheetah and lions, check out the Tigers & Leopards photo tour page on our website for more information: www.squiver.com/tours-workshops/south-africa-2018/ Marsel WEBSITE | FACEBOOK | INSTAGRAM ©2017 Marsel van Oosten, All Rights Reserved.
