2017 Wildlife Photo Contest

Leopard (nicknamed Marula by the guides), Timbavati, Greater Kruger, South Africa
Marula at Sunset

Species: Leopard (nicknamed Marula by the guides) | Location: Timbavati, Greater Kruger, South Africa

On my first safari outing in the Timbavati, a female leopard walked past the vehicle, up the dam wall, and then stretched out right in front of me for her photo shoot. I get a kick out of this photo because the backdrop look like one used in a photography studio. She really set the bar high for the remaining 14 days of the trip!
