Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken in Kenya

Time

We were having a ‘bush lunch’ when our guide was notified of a cheetah baby sighting. We hurried over to the spot since seeing a baby cheetah was at the top of my list to see. We saw the mom right away, and then finally this little head popped up out of the grass.

Lighting

It was a bright beautiful day and the light on the grass made it glow.

Equipment

I used a Canon T31 with an 18-200 zoom.

Inspiration

I’m a paparazzi when it comes to animals. On Safari I take around 5K photos.

Editing

I just converted it to sepia tone. That’s all.

In my camera bag

I’ve upgraded my equipment. Today I shoot with a Canon 90D with a 100-400 zoom when on Safari. I also still have the18-200 in my bag though.

Feedback

Patience! Not my strong suit. I’d given up on seeing cubs, but was l lucky enough to to see them the day before we needed to head home.
