This is soooo cool. A trail camera shot of a mountain lion in the Hollywood Hills (not far from Los Angeles Zoo), with the famous Hollywood sign in the background. Plus the artistic way the cat's body perfectly lines up with the ridgeline of the mountains above him, and the angle of the flash that lights him but leaves the surroundings dark for framing. This is incredible. I am virtually certain this will be one of the winners in the 2014 Wildlife Photographer of the Year.
