  1. Crispy and very nice detail, insects are humorous, I thought I had some flecks on my display and tried to wipe them. Great shot, like many of yours. Africa, what a place! Posted 13 years ago
  2. So gorgeous and a rare edition to JungleDragon. May I ask how close you were to the subject? Posted 13 years ago

The cheetah is a large-sized feline inhabiting most of Africa and parts of the Middle East.The cheetah achieves by far the fastest land speed of any living animal—between 112 and 120 km/h in short bursts covering distances up to 500 m, and has the ability to accelerate from 0 to over 100 km/h in three seconds.
