Wow, you had the trip of a lifetime, didn't you! That was an awesome series of shots you just posted. I really enjoyed your compositions and the subject matter was very engaging. Wow!
No shots of crocodiles eating wilderbeasts? Susan is going to be dissapointed
Thanks very much for the positive comments - Much appreciated. I have quite a few others that I would like to share. Will post them up today.
A lot of people have commented on the 'cheetah back' shot however that was the one that I least enjoyed taking/ got the least pleasure in taking as it was in such a controlled environment and almost felt like cheating !!
On another note, are there any tutorials/ tips on how to prepare a photo (post processing work) so that I can print it to a large size? And also, if any recommendations for companies to use in the UK to print quite large prints which arent overly pricey?

What a coincidence !! Where did you stay? We were there at the beginning of Oct and stayed at Halali and Namutoni
We stayed at the Namutoni lodge. Halali probably would have been our first choice, but our decision to make the trip up from the Cheetah Conservation Fund was kind of last minute so Namutoni was the only one of the three lodges with any rooms left. We entered from the east and explored near Namutoni the first afternoon and then started out early the next day to explore the main road that runs along the southern edge of the pan. We exited out the south entrance and drove back to CCF the second afternoon. Although we didn't have time to see everything, I think we got a pretty good representative sample in the time we were there. At least for us, the watering hole named Nebrowni near the southern entrance easily had the most wildlife - though we saw things throughout the park.
wow, just incredible shooting. I love the great white picture (i've always been partial to great whites) and the last pic with the lion looking at the (antelope?) is just amazing. Out of curiosity, what lens do you use for your wide-angle/panoramic shots?
