Impala pursuit.
07.58am
This is Shingu, the mum to 6 cubs.
We followed her stalking and then pursuing Impala one early morning, unfortunately she wasn't successful but I did manage a few frames at a relatively close distance in good light.
This image is in conjunction with a previous chase scene posting here:

Well timed here Marc, as Im sure this wasnt easy. Good running pose with all four feet off the ground, and the cheetah is sparated from the BG nicely.
She is great mother Marc
Excellent image with great pose and techs

Marc,
I have no images of running Cheetahs, so I am jealous.
Nice and clear, just a pity you were not slightly ahead of it.
Well done on this Marc, very tough to try get images like this. I can see there is a lot of tall grass around as well, so you clearly did well to catch her in the open. I really like the positions of the feet, and the shadow is an added bonus.
All techs look pretty good.
Cheers and TFS

Nice, clean & simple Marc, with good action, the crop suits it well.

Post Production: It’s ALL about what you do with the tools and not, which brand of tool you use.
Marc - Well done to capture this mid stride with full stretch.
TFS,
Rachel
Nice timing on the mid stride pose. Techs are spot on. Pano crop works well. Well done.

I like the crop as well.

Nice timing. I really like the curves shown off by the body in stride.
Great action. Like the the cheetah is just above the ground.
