Great pics! I just got back from southern Africa and I've found that while I enjoy the pics I took with the animals really zoomed in, my favorites are the ones that are wide enough such that the landscape is visible as well (kind of like your elephant photo). So much of the experience is watching the animals in their natural habitat... too much telephoto and you lose some of the context of the shot (at least for me).

Thanks! I agree a surrounding can add a lot to a photo, your cheetah is outstanding! Still I like seeing them close and personal, love the detail.

Most of our encounters did not have an amazing surrounding like yours, yet I did take a few more beside the elephants.
