Cheetah Clan


Fota Wildlife Park in Cork is well worth a visit and can provide a lovely day out.  From a photography perspective, being a wildlife park, the animals tend to have larger more open enclosures and there may be an opportunity to capture clearer, uncluttered shots. 

This cheetah group was snapped early on in the visit with nice lighting due to cloud cover avoiding harsh sunlight.  I used my standard nature settings with shutter set at 1/1000 sec.  Because I used my 1.4x  extender to enable shots at 560mm, my open aperture was at f8 and this resulted in an auto ISO of 6400.
