Serenity

There’s a certain serene confidence that comes with power, and when you are (literally & figuratively) at the top of the tree, you can relax in the knowledge that you are untouchable. For this portrait, I wanted to capture the Leopard’s natural beauty alongside a sense of calm authority. Here, this majestic animal enjoys a moment of peace in the dappled early evening light ahead of a night hunting and patrolling her territory.
