Cheetah rests in the grass of the Serengeti National Park, Tanzania, East Africa. Canon 1Ds, 500mm f/4L IS, w/1.4x (700mm) 1/320 sec @ f/8, ISO 200
I’m re processing many images from my previous international travels and I came across this one, which is timely since I’ll be visiting Africa again this year. I remember taking the picture, since it was it was baking hot in the white mid-day light when it is challenging to photograph. However, I still like the picture even without that special low-angle African light. The great plains of Tanzania don’t offer a lot of topography, and this cheetah found a small mound to rest upon as the Wildebeest migration was underway in the Serengeti. I can’t wait to return to this amazing continent so rich with natural wonders.
