Well i did laugh out at that statement my daughter asks if you need a hand with the website as she hates me too ! same reason.
Not to shabby as it was shot through wire and i had to adjust where i stood to get the wire to vanish.
Thanks a lot Pol !

Cy, as far I am concerned you are the mother of all nature photographers!!! ....or father!
tell your daughter I'll take her up on her offer, she can provide inside images!!! hahahaha like a paparazzo!!!
wow, I am even more impressed now that I know there was wire in the way. I wanted to ask you if you shot it through glass because I wasn't sure if there was something between you and the leopard but wire....I would have never thought!

A longer focal length and wider aperture help to make the wire/cage vanish, a shorter lens will tend to focus everything including the wire.

I just started into photography myself, so I'll have to remember that. Very nice photo you've taken here.

I think that the snow leopard is the most beautiful of the panthera Family

Thanks Mooney
This cat spotted a Pigeon on the top of it's cage, in a couple of bounds onto fallen tree trunks it was at the roof of the cage in a few seconds, it swiped at the Pigeon which flew off in the nick of time.

Thanks Anthony, first time i have seen one in person, and for once could admire it in the flesh rather than from your lovely photos
