"Against all odds, the female leopard survived... and so did her cub. After weeks of uncertainty, what we saw in the heart of the Tatowa watershed left us speechless. A silent face-off with a rival. An impossible survival. And then... a miracle in the grass." 🐾
Top 100: Shadow Cat

If you have a full-frame camera with a 45-50 MP sensor, extreme cropping is possible and sometimes essential. Nick took this shot of a female leopard as it walked along the riverbank in Chobe National Park, but even though he was using his 600mm lens, he was quite far away, so she didn't fill the frame by any means.
However, he happened to notice that she was passing in front of bushes that were in deep shadow, so he decided to crop in to isolate the leopard's head against the black background. And that made the difference between a 'ho, hum' record shot and something that might make the viewer say, "Wow!"
