    Great moment captured here Stephen...
    Yellows seem fine to me but could probably do with a slight tweak as per Peter .

    Was this a single cheetah trying to cross the river?

    Well timed, good execution Stephen. The leap certainly conveys the Cheetah hopefully straddling the river. Did he/she make it?

    I wonder, if again, a pano crop might suit, echoing/extending the leap, WDYT?
