Beauty of the Pattern

During a recent trip to the Okavango Delta in Botswana, I was fortunate to come across this leopard (Panthera pardus) that had just descended from a tree where it was hiding an impala kill. As she calmly walked by the vehicle that I was in, she heard something in the distance that caused her to stop and turn her head.

The moment provided me with the opportunity to capture this image of her focused gaze with the beauty of the pattern on her body serving as a great background.
