"Chui" was inspired by a once in a lifetime encounter with a powerful wild leopard in his prime.  The perfect fusion of stealth and beauty, he appeared out of the brush merely a few feet ahead of  our open top safari vehicle.  My heart pounded as he gazed into my eyes with a look I will not soon forget. It crossed my mind that if he wished he could have a "boxed lunch"!   While looking through my photos I noticed I could see a reflection of myself in his eyes.
