Not many chances to lower the iso on safari especially with a heavy lens but this lion gave me the opportunity. I included a crop to see the fur and flies :-)

Yes its quite the size and with a young one as well. I feel this particular rhino is actually more shy then most which will explain its later in the day sighting
Spotted this rhino at the end of the day and had to push the iso, the biggest horn I've come across on any trip.

Had quite a bit of time with this cheetah. Lucky to get nice lighting and no other vehicles around. She had a good feast.

One keeps a look out while the other takes a drink. Giraffes are at their most vulnerable when bending down.
