Cheetah, Kuname.jpg

Nikon D5100 at 300mm; 1/50; F5.6; ISO 200

Got this photograph of a cheetah whilst in a reserve in South Africa. I was about 2 meters away and on foot.

I know that 1/50 is unreasonable at 300mm when handheld but surprisingly this was better than any of the shots I got at ISO 400, 800 and 1600. In all fairness it was not completely handheld as I used my younger brother's head as a monopod :p

Feel free to C&C and add comments...
