Cheers, not sure the colours are a true match as I did the PP on my uncalibrated laptop as I'm currently working abroad and now the LR lib is back home. I do however remember that this and another male were darker than the female cheetah below.
I hope I will also get the chance to go back this or next year to Namibia as I still have the Northwest region to explore, Epupa and the Himbas. Had to rethink my route when I was there last year as I hoped to cover more, but time was going way to fast.
Did 6500km driving in 3.5 weeks through Namibia, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana and some days in the bush one could not add many Ks on the meter. But I wanted to get a general sense of where I would like to go again and spend more time thats why I went for the gladiator drive...
Now I know that Kaokoland and Khaudum is priority in Namibia and then I would love to spend more time in the Okavango in Botswana, cant wait to try my luck again with the 4x4 on the roads there
With regards to the Himbas I'm not that conservative, perhaps its because I'm a Swede. In my opinion its like hiding the NG magazines behind the counter. This is part of their culture and they even go shopping groceries like that...

Well I think these are just brilliant, especially the earlier one with all the Horses spread out coming right at you, Honestly looks surreal and the B&W absolutely is the way to show these Images, great stuff you should be justifiably proud of these.

Canon 8-15L F4 on Canon 5D M3. yes that's a real fish and a real coral reef

For a second, it reminded me of an aquarium. With their circular peaks into the life of a fish...
I like the shot. Did you rent the underwater equipment to keep the body and the lens dry?

One of my best shots. At least for yesterday..
I managed to annoy a Red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) by not moving out of its way and insisting to stick around and photograph him/her.

*lol* Well, there is a football stadium a few hundred meters away, but nothing spectacular was going on there in the afternoon.
The only thing that was playing was the beat from my shutter firing away, and some Blackbirds singing in the background. Nothing much to get all teary-eyed for.
I'm just happy he/she didn't go for my nuts.

For lies perpetrated by his relative Punxsutawney Phill on February 02 , and encroaching on my property I declare a sentence of banishment if he is ensnared in the live trap or death if I see him foraging in my yard while I have easy access to a gun.
Either way he's a marked dirtpig .
The next time he gets shot, it will not be with a camera !

Great shot of a red squirrel,
Nice to see some shots of squirrels where they are not being torn apart by some bird.
It was a bad month for squirrels on CR in March ;D
