Description Taken at the Cleveland Zoo

While he was laying down here [link] I got on the other side of the fence and zoomed all the way in. He looked very thoughtful or in a reverie possibly when I caught this and I always wonder what they're thinking the moment I catch them in a shot.

There's some areas on the corner that look sorta like vignetting, but it's actually just the chain link fence intruding in on the shot.

He was so beautiful so close up too...his brother took a swipe at one of the zoo workers who came jogging by earlier and we laughed a little at how touchy he was, but this one seemed cool and collected.

Thank you!! Though I have to say that this was the result of me trying to keep the cheetah's face in the frame while bending over a fence and my hands trying to hold the massive camera and lens steady (with my puny little arms)--all the while trying to keep the fence out of the shot! LOL
