I was going back through some of the photos from my earlier Africa trips. This one was taken in March 2005 on Chief's Island in Botswana. It was raining and we came across 2 cheetah brothers that still hunted as a pair. They had taken down this impala (I think) and were busy stuffing themselves. I also have a couple of shots where this cheetah has stuck his head under the skin of the impala to get at the more tasty parts.
Taken with a Canon Elan 7E film camera and the 100-400. Sorry, don't have the EXIF data. I had all the images put on disc at the time they were developed. Boy the ppi was much lower then. Selective sharpening applied to the cheetah's head and the eyes were lightened slightly.
C&C welcome and appreciated. Thanks,
Rachel
