You have some beautiful photos. I am however disturbed by this photo. Why were these vehicles surrounding this cheetah. Obviously the vehicles drove right up to her. This is so very, very wrong. If this had been in the Mara Triangle and any of their Rangers were around every driver would have been fined. I hope you were using your telephoto lense. These cheetah are so fragile and after it's effort to capture a meal, she certainly didn't need the stress of this. Sorry, but after 13 trips to the Mara I hate seeing this.
