Early Morning light from the sunrise,Equipment
Canon EOS Rebel with a telephoto lens 75 to 300Inspiration
We followed this cheetah and her cub for 30 minutes. Apparently the mother lost 3 other cubs to hyenas in previous days and she seemed to be very protective of he last remaining cub. Our vehicle seemed to be comforting to her and not threatening.Editing

Early morning sun proved to be perfect for taking photos on a safari
