Cheetah in Grasslands

A cinematic wildlife photograph of a solitary cheetah moving quietly through tall golden grass in the African savanna. Only its head, shoulders and upper back remain clearly visible as warm late-afternoon light defines the spotted coat and focused amber eyes. The distant landscape fades into soft atmospheric haze. Photographed at eye level with a 300mm telephoto lens, realistic feline anatomy and stalking behavior, restrained golden palette, shallow depth of field, no prey, no vehicles, no people, no text. Landscape 3:2.
