Fever Tree Leopard | Limited Edition Fine Art Prints 11 Only
A Rare Encounter in the Ethereal Forest
Where was this photograph taken?
The image was captured in the enchanting Fever Tree Forest of Lake Nakuru, Kenya. This unique woodland, with its ghostly yellow-green trunks and filtered sunlight, creates a surreal backdrop found nowhere else in Africa. It’s one of the few remaining places where leopards roam wild and undisturbed.
🎥 Behind the Moment
Watch the fleeting encounter unfold as I filmed this graceful leopard moving through the Fever Tree Forest of Lake Nakuru. The still image captured from this sequence became Fever Tree Leopard—a timeless fine art print now available in just 11 editions
What makes this leopard image so special?
This photograph features a rare female leopard resting high in the boughs of a towering fever tree. Bathed in dappled light, she moved with effortless grace, her tail curling in a fluid arc as she turned in profile—an image of perfect feline poise.
The black and white composition strips away distraction and brings forward every rich texture: the cracked bark, the sleek contours of her coat, and the interplay of shadow and form. It’s a moment of wild beauty—elegant, elusive, and deeply intimate.

Why black and white?
Black and white photography distils the scene to its essential elements—texture, form, and light—highlighting the quiet power of the leopard and the intricate bark of the fever tree.
For this image, I applied a subtle Vandyke brown toning, enhancing the print with a warm, timeless character reminiscent of classic darkroom techniques. This careful toning adds richness and emotional depth while maintaining the integrity of a modern, archival pigment print.
