Description
I did a double take and then just about fainted when I saw these guys. Anyone who has been following at my pictures since the beginning knows that clouded leopards are right up there at the top of my list as far as my favorite animals goes, so to have the opportunity to see these guys - only 3 months old at the time I took this picture - was amazing.
Unfortunately, the were very far away, very high up in a very dark enclosure. And being the digital camera noob that I am, I didn't remember that I could change my ISO... Was shooting handheld at about 1/3 second at ISO 100. And using my 300mm lens. qq

Sure thing. My only two rules are that you give credit for the reference and that you drop me a link if you post your drawing so I can come gawk.
