Can't afford to go to Africa so took this image at Kansas City Zoo.
D2Xs 80-400mm vr at 230 mm matrix metering, aperture priority, iso 100, 1/400sec at f/5.6 WB cloudy.
maybe one day you will get a chance to visit over here.. maybe bpn should arrange a trip here!!
only problem with this image is the branch going thru the cheetah s head, light was against you a very soft fill flash would have help make the subject pop...
at least if you go back when the light is good you are guaranteed a sighting unlike over here...
