    This is pretty high on the cuteness factor with these liitle ones (mostly co-operative)
    This Cheetah was known as Bomba (Swahili for Super) and mum to 4 very schweet "fuzz balls".
    As with most large families, there always seems to be at least one that is a little different, lags behind or just not quite as social. Oh well.................4 outta 5 aint too bad.

    Ndutu/Serengeti- Northern Tanzania.

    D4 500 f/4 1/320s f/5.6 ISO3200. F/F bean bag from front pax seat, curves, levels-Tk masking, in ACR PS CC '14.

    C & C most welcome

    Cheers
    Marc

    Forgot to add this as "Theme" Rachel.

    Classic image Marc! Can't get much better, great look at the three little ones and the mom. Very nice eye contact on all of them. Excellent techs too. TFS.

    Hi Marc - I took care of adding the Theme prefix for you. Very nice look at the family and there has to be a troublemaker in every family to keep things interesting and challenging. Love the poses and the kittens all lined up. Nice sharpness and detail. I just felt it was a bit thin and light. Took it into PS and applied a simple curves adjustment. WDYT?

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Thanks Rachel, perhaps somewhere between the two as we have some magenta creeping in on the cats now.

    I'll have another look at this.

    My Goodness! How delightful!

    So...you got them lined up, in the end!

    Love your RP - got more punch and more life, otherwise great comp and the content is to die for - sharpness and detail look good to me. Did you see them playing or interacting in any way? If the answer is yes, then how can I convince you to share some of that in the Story Sequences Forum? No cheetah images there yet, and it looks like you have so many cheetah in your folders - more please!!!

    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea

    Amazing shooting angle, nice clean BG and the fact most of the youngsters have lined up for you is fantastic.
    I am seeing a little magenta/pink in all the posts.

    Hey Marc, I love this shot. Composition is very good and the background really works even with all the texture change. I like the last version best. Great job.
