Description This is a photo of a Snow Leopard Cub that I took at the Cat Survival Trust.

The cutest things I've ever had the pleasure of seeing! We even got to stroke her! Also one of the softest things I've ever felt.

That a sweet portrait and the snow leopard is so fuzzy it almost seems like I could reach out through the screen and touch it.
Really, a beautiful portrait !

Wow that is so awesome. I love how clear the photograph is. This cub sure looks interested in what you're doing. I love the eyes they're so pretty...seeing those crystal clear eyes makes me want to draw something. You did a really good at having the cub be the focal point and the blurred background really adds to the focus.

Just adorable.

Oh really thank you so much... its so cute, haha I think I'll take you up on your offer because with eyes as bright and clear as those they're just begging to be drawn.

Haha, I'm sure not Martin!
You and Dawn should go there sometime, it's a great place. They have caracals there, apparently on of the only places in England where you can photograph caracals, so that's pretty cool.

very beautiful shot! I think the most intriguing thing in animal shots is either their pose or their eyes. Especially in cats! Her eyes are amazing!

FantasticFennec In reply to XnoxdeaX [2010-10-22 16:48:38 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. And I agree, the eyes so often make the picture what it is, I'm really thrilled I got a shot of her looking directly at the camera.

YoYoFreakCJ In reply to ??? [2010-10-20 16:16:03 +0000 UTC]

So cuddly x3
The photo is fantastic. Backgroud and foreground work perfectly together, not only because of the sharpness. Writing that she's the cutest and softest thing is so mean..I really have to go there soon and see for myself >.< maybe on my next vacation, next summer..
The cub is absolutely lovely. I love the dark lines in her eyes.
I so wanna pet her

Thank you very much. Haha, sorry, didn't mean to be mean. And I'm sure she'd be all grown up in a years time, but give it a couple of years and they may well have another litter, they're pretty active in their snow leopard breeding.
