Eye of the Hunt

MalaMala Game Reserve, South Africa

There are photographs that document a moment, and then there are those that invite you into it.

On a rain-soaked morning in Mala Mala Game Reserve, South Africa, I found myself lying flat on the floor of our safari vehicle, cradling a large telephoto lens only inches above the earth. It was the only way to create the perspective I had envisioned. I didn't want you looking down at this magnificent female leopard. I wanted you to feel as though you were sharing the ground beneath her feet.
