Right after a terrific storm, we went outside to see if any damage had been done to the waterfront and were amazed to see the clear lights of the city with a bright moon shining overhead. The peaceful, calm water made it look like not a drop of rain had fallen.

This cheetah is one of two brothers we sighted roaming Vuyani Reserve during a game ride in 2018. The handheld image is from a Canon 5D4 with a 150-600 telephoto lense and was taken from the back seat of an open top range vehicle. The intense stare from those orange eyes os captivating.
