DJR Posted December 17, 2016 Posted December 17, 2016 I always found it ironic that a few years ago a picture like this one of a Snow Leopard (not sure if it is this exact one) won the National Geographic best picture of the year. Because it was taken with a motion sensor trap camera. I know a lot of skill and luck was involved, but I still loved the idea that the Snow Leopard took a selfie and won against the best nature photographers on earth.

Eventually had to use the full 300mm zoom and still get "close" enough to try fill part of the frame. My little girl enjoyed it though - me chasing after it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
