There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
The last jaguar we saw at the Pantanal, relaxing in the shade. I try to keep the camera focused, arms steady, and the trigger finger ready, and wait until I see a sparkle in the eye to take the picture, that's the moment that ends up having the most impact.
