At first glance I didn't notice the leopard.  With those patterns, I'd like to see that in black and white.

That's what the Impala said before it was eaten.

Impalas like B&W too.

I've been fascinated by this photo; beautiful.

I showed it to my wife, and she remembered a photo that Barbara Rowell took (Galen's wife).  It's remarkably similar in concept, especially realizing that it's probably a straight film shot, i.e. no desaturation.

You can see it here, but it's flash, so go to the page and then click on the leopard photo.

They are both great photos; nice work Michael.
