Leopard reflection in water
This semi-captive leopard was photographed in the 2,000 hectare 'safe' area at the AfricCat Foundation's PAWS Environmental Education Centre at Okonjima, Namibia, where problem cats are (theoretically) rehabilitated for release back into the wild.
This was taken from a blind, shortly after the leopard had finished feeding on bait left in a tree. I noticed its reflection in a pool of brackish water just in front of the blind, and couldn't help noticing how sharp and clear the colours were.
