Beautiful capture! I love how the cheetah is looking directly at the camera. Really portrays some emotions!

Love a lot of things here: the texture of the cheetah dots, the contrast between the cheetah's eyes and the gazelle's, the rawness of the scene. Wonderful!

I'm surprised there is no visible blood - but I also see no sign that you "photoshopped" any blood out. Was the lack of blood just luck?

There won't be blood at this point as the predator is still suffocating their prey.

It can be hard to watch and capture! The sounds always remain with me forever which makes it, at times, a traumatic experience as well. I love our Cheetahs most of all and capturing them in the wild is one of the most amazing experiences ever!
