The Tree Hugger

We found the beautiful Kimbia Female Leopard close to Pilanesberg Center one late afternoon. We followed her as she walked onto Tlou drive and climbed into a tree.

She was focused to find something to hunt and used the tree as a vantage point.

The sun was down already and I pushed my gear's low light capabilities to the max. With a steady hand, a shutter speed of 1/400s and ISO 10 000, this is what I managed with the Sony Alpha A7R IV and the Sony 200-600mm.

She devoted her life to the study and protection of mountain gorillas, helping the world to understand these "gentle giants."
