Love the golden lighting and this low POV thirst quenching pose, would prefer more space on the LHS and less on the right Rudi if this isn't FF?

Lovely image, great light and the drinking behaviour is awesome. I agree with Marc reg more space to the right in the direction where the cheetah is looking.

Hello Rudi! This is such a great sighting! I think I might know this cheetah, few months ago that scar on the nose was already there, I shall look through my last KTP folders to make sure this is not a case of "mistaken identity"...
I gather this is FF and you did not want to crop too tight, love the pose here and the tongue and water droplets a bonus, wondering what time of the day you took this image, also wondering what Kalahari had to offer in winter (I have never been there this time of the year). This makes me start counting the sleeps, two months and a bit and I will be there again, searching the riverbeds and the red dunes
, listening to the lions roar at night...
Kind regards and hoping for more images from your recent trip,

Very nice light Rudi, lovely detail and nice detail in the shadows too, compositional issues covered already, otherwise a great image.

Hi Rudi, if the Cheetah hadn't turned you would have been in prime position. Like the angle, but if you have it a fraction more below would be good. Nice light & detail, but you can up the white in Levels which helps.

Can't add much more here Rudi - good balance of shadow and light and a lovely waterhole for cheetah sightings for me personally too.
I would crop this square for better balance?
