Your best animal shots!

Hi Cog.
Lovely shot, great cooperative model, mine always want to walk to the camera!

Cheers, Graham.

Hi Valvebounce,

Thanks! It was a stray or wild cat that lives in an oasis. I just loved the scene and the light but it didn't last long. When the cat noticed I'm paying too much attention, it walked away into the bush.

Best,
Vladimir

My favourite animals are snow leopards. I guess that's why my nick name is snowleo... ;D

Unfortunately, I have never had the possibility to see them in the Himalayas. All what I can offer you, are pictures from the zoo in Basel/Switzerland. Actually, they have 5 of them. Pator (male) and Mayhan (female) and their 3 cubs (Makalou, Mekong (both male) and Myanmar (female) born in late May 2015). The 3 young ones are pretty playful and are pretty well at jumping as nearly all snow leopards. I hope, you like the following pictures (taken with a 7DII plus EF 100-400 L II).
