Well, coming home was three flights, 40 hours from bed to bed, with my wife and three children!

Great shot Monte, I love the warm (evening?) light that brings a sense of "peace and quiet"...

Yes, it was the tail end of the last run of the day as the sun was setting. The only editing was a little cropping.
Same for the Leopard shot as well.

Wow, Monte. Those are some incredible photos.

I'm not sure what I should be more impressed with.... The camera at that ISO, the image that you captured, the use of fill flash, or the fact that you found the leopard in the dark!


Well done!

Nice. We only had one chance with a Leopard in a tree but I couldn't get a clean shot of it due to too many other people's heads in the way.

Amazing Shot!

I went to Iceland a while ago with a telezoom where the aperture-blades were stuck wide open. Made some parts of the trip a bit challenging, but did give me the opportunity to play around with a short DOF.

Hi anbjerknes.
Very nice shot, a great example of life serving up lemons and you deciding to make lemonade! Hopefully you have repaired or replaced the lens so as not to have the same problem again!

Cheers, Graham.
