Two Cheetah brothers posing nicely for the camera. Captured in the Mara North Conservancy during the recently concluded photographic safari I hosted. We spent over 6 hours following these two cubs and her mom that presented us with countless photo opportunities. The mother of these two was in a clear hunting mode. Eventually after 2 failed attempts she made her kill . . . I will be posting more of this cheetah family

Looking forward to the other images from this trek!
Definite cute factor here...and to me there's almost a humourous element to how "serious" they appear to be trying to look (and be). Almost like they're "not to be messed with" and trying to look tough!
My personal preference would be to have a little more room on the left...placing the head of the cub that is looking right at you almost dead centre in the frame. I think a tad more on top wouldn't hurt either. There would still be a strong asymmetry to the frame, given the position of the cub on the upper left side of the frame.
Thanks for sharing this one...looking forward to seeing more of this family.
Cheers...
