Fig the Leopard

Whilst on safari in The Masai Mara, we were lucky enough to see Fig, a mature female leopard. She got her name because she likes sitting in fig trees, apparently. When we saw her however, she was skulking along by a river, no doubt annoyed by the presence of photographers taking her portrait without permission and with no modelling fee. She is an incredibly beautiful animal, as I hope I’ve managed to convey with these shots, taken in very low light at the end of a long day.
