Title: Mantra

Location: Erindi, Namibia, 2018

Stand, not often.
Seldom, opportunity arrives.
Fear the wise,
Who hunt at night.

Over the years at Erindi the researchers for the Global Leopard Project have followed the life of this one particular Leopard. And at every turn, she’s taught us something new about how Leopards behave in the wild. Allowing us to get closer than ever before without impacting her behaviors she’s surprised on many, many occasions with feats like this.

It is extremely rare to witness. And I’ve only ever heard about it in fireside tales. As far as I know, only a handful of people have ever seen it with their own eyes. But this Leopard, well, she stands on her hind legs as a specialized hunting technique. When she’s out on the hunt, it serves her well if the grass is too. If there are no mounds or hills to climb for a better vantage point, well, she just lifts her body into the air.  

At this moment, I was with a group of people out in the bush for the evening leading into the sunset. We’d been tracking her for a while and there wasn’t much action. Then all of sudden she perked up like a spring, arms dangling. She scanned the landscape like a calibrated machine and then stared straight at us for what felt like an eternity. We all felt it. Massive gaze. She looked at each individual person. Literally, not kidding. Leopards can do that. Their vision is so good they can pinpoint and identify individuals at a distance.  

Well… all of us could hardly speak afterward. In shock from what we just witnessed. At least now we’re the ones finally telling the fireside fables of unicorn moments out in the bush.

DETAILED INFO ABOUT PRINTS BELOW

Secure Delivery: Because the packages provided by the supplier are so protective, prints are rarely damaged. However, if a package does arrive damaged and the print is also damaged, you can contact me directly by email. You’ll need to photograph the package and the print and send the details to info@donalboyd.com along with your order number and tracking info.

Delivery Time: Orders ship out within 24-hours of your purchase, but can take up to 15-days to arrive, so please have patience. I'm using the trusted service of theprintspace located in London, UK. They're incredible, but only offer Flat Rate Worldwide shipping, which is limited in terms of order tracking numbers. From my experience so far with the previous print sale, everyone has received their orders, but due to COVID delays, things seems to take a bit longer than normal. Keep in mind that I'm all alone in trying to manage the print store right now, but I promise, you will get your print!

Estimated Average Shipping Times. 

• Europe: 3-5 Days
• USA & Canada: 7-9 Days
• Rest of the World: Up to 10 Days 

As a final request, please consider emailing me only after 15-days from the day you purchased. I wish I could respond to every customer with the tracking details, but it's quite overwhelming since I've received hundreds of orders during the most recent sale period. I wish the system was automated, but unfortunately it's all manual at the moment. Thank you for your patience and consideration. 

Exchanges & Returns:

Straight refunds are not accepted as these are limited editions prints, but I’m confident you’re going to love the print and cherish it forever. But if it isn’t what you expected, or it’s somehow damaged you can exchange it for free. Once the package is delivered, you’ll have 5-days to notify me via email info@donalboyd.com if the print is either damaged or if you’d like to exchange it for another of equal value. Shipping is free if the print is damaged, but if you want to exchange the print, you’ll need to cover the shipping costs, plus the cost of the prints. Unfortunately, I  cannot accept back prints that have been delivered as there is too high a risk of them being damaged or lost in the shipping. I do not keep an inventory of prints as all orders are made within 24-hours of purchase and shipped out from the print lab in London or Germany. Therefore, because I do not keep a stock, I cannot accept back prints for this reason.

Secure Payment: Card details are never stored and if using any other payment method like PayPal, I’ll never have access to any of your sensitive payment details. Everything is handled through Shopify and is fully encrypted.

What is the option to pay in instalments on Shop Pay?

When checking out with Shop Pay, you now have the option to pay now or later. Paying in instalments on Shop Pay allows you to split your purchase amount into 4 equal, biweekly instalment payments—with 0% interest, no hidden or late fees, and no impact on your credit score. In some instances, your first payment is due when you make your purchase; otherwise, your first payment is due 2 weeks after your purchase.

Are there late fees with Shop Pay?

No, there are no late fees if you miss a scheduled payment.

Which payment methods are accepted if I use the option to pay Instalments on Shop Pay?

The instalments option on Shop Pay is available on debit and credit cards.

Edition Numbers: All prints are limited edition. Once the edition sells out there is never going to be another printed. Ever. At this time I can not accommodate special requests for specific edition numbers. Although it is a common practice when purchasing through galleries and exhibitions to ask for a specific edition number, the ordering system that I currently have in place does not allow for easy modifications after the order is placed online. For artwork that has a history of sales, you may receive a random  As such, if you order two prints of the same image, you might not get consecutive edition numbers. For example, you might get Edition 5 of 15 and 1 of 15 for the same image even though you order the prints at the same time and even if the print appears to be almost sold out online.
