Love the brutal strength of the Leopard and the desperate demeanor of the Impala to escape. Great action shot. I’d like to know how many images were in your burst...I’d guess about a 100 ?

I was on a 9 day safari in South Africa and you see life and death flash before your eyes. Everyday is a struggle, from the biggest to the smallest of creatures. Amazing shot.

Congrats on your Runner-up Award. Hard to see how you did not win the competition with it

Awesome, awesome shot. The timing couldn't be better. The power and agility of both animals is on display.
