#090 - Silent Cry

Serengeti, Tanzania - 2024
 
Perched on a small rise, the cheetah lets out a call, its mouth open just enough to reveal sharp teeth built for the hunt. Its spotted coat blends naturally with the tall grass, a perfect balance of stealth and speed.
 
Against the pale sky, its presence is strong yet effortless, a quiet part of the landscape.
Everything about the cheetah is built for movement. Its long legs, lean muscles, and sharp claws are made for speed, and even at rest, there’s a sense of readiness. The slight tension in its posture suggests it could spring into action at any moment, a predator always prepared for the chase.
