A young leopard cub gazes at me with an open stare from her view on a tree limb. I was transformed by her glorious eyes and unguarded curiosity. I have seen many many leopards in my decades of visiting African countries but never a leopard with eyes this luminous. I converted the image to BW in post processing to also show the specular highlights in the background which framed her so beautifully. Image taken standing from the roof of a safari vehicle in Kenya.
