Cheetahs are one of the fastest land mammals, if not the fastest. These two, however, did not look as it they would be running anywhere very soon! Again, taken at Chester Zoo, with just a slight textured layer added.

Thank you all so very much for your continued support and special thanks to Suehh for her precious UA on my Sunset upload - this means a lot to me as I greatly admire your work, Sue.

Have a great day everyone!

Carol

Parallel parking for Chetahs, perhaps? They are so beautiful and you captured their expressions and markings so well.

Quote: I like the cats ,not sure about the bg.

Neil - I pondered long and hard over the texturing, but the grass was so dull and sparse I felt it needed something else. I might later investigate maybe a grassy texture that might work! Thanks for your thoughts though!

Watched a programme recently about cheetah's Carol.
The guy said imagine driving your car at 70mph and the cheetah would be running beside you !!
Good shot.
