Shooting at a mountain lion in a tree isn't as easy as it sounds.most scenes are proceeded by long uphill marches in steep country.Your chest is heaving,heart pounding and the sound of the dogs around you is deafening.Sometimes you don't have much time if a cat is antsy and ready to jump and shots are often way steeper than we normally shoot.And if you have a partner screaming"SHOOT!,SHOOT!",it just adds to the fun.

Some high pressure stuff for sure.Nice job.
