    Congratulations Callie de Wet
    We are VERY fierce! We will eviscerate you if you touch our MOM!

    Saw this family about 07h30 and spend time with them, that is why we missed the cheetah kill on Xmas! They were quite far off the road but so cute, 4 of them suckling on MOM. There were six cub, the one is still in the den below the other one whose head only is protruding! ~ About 25 km on the Mata Mata Rd north of Twee Rivieren ~ Bateared Fox, Otocyon megalotis, Kingdom: Animalia (Animals), Phylum: Chordata (Vertebrates), Class: Mammalia (Mammals), Carnivora: (Carnivores), Canidae: (Foxes, Jackal and Wild Dog) ~ D300S 600 4f + 1.4 TC ~ ISO 800 ~ F8 ~ 1/400 ~ AP ~ Matrixx ~ 07h30, the sun rising over the dune into the lens, they were still in the early morning shade. Slected most of BG, run Noise reduction, copied subjects with the immediate BG surrounding them to new layer, ran Smart sharpen and collapesd. Reduced. Crop is about 70 % of original.
