    Default Cheetah at Last Light

    A Cheetah in last light, Kwara Concession, Okavango Delta.

    One of the three boys I had just watched on a failed hunt.

    Magical light Russell.

    Personally I would remove much more of the sky to emphasise the composition and the golden light with a pano crop.
