      Prelude To A Leap
      Prelude To A Leap   |  28th May 2012  |  Leave a comment

      This Ring-Tailed Lemur, as you may guess from the title, was just about to leap from this fence up into a tree. I wasn’t quick enough to catch the jump, but I did manage this shot, as he gave us a cheeky glance.

      Taken along the Foot Safari at Woburn Safari Park.

      Shutter Speed:1/250 second
