Not really the best shot there is, but it sums up some things about me:

Well, I'm back! And busy with university, what a surprise!

Anyway, the next weeks are going to be a sheer delight for cheetah lovers. I am starting to process some of the 2000 photos I took in Africa. Due to my idiotic lack of a lens > 135mm most of the close-up shots were either shot real close up or are results of creative cropping. If you want some background info on CCF or my stay there go ahead and ask me. Or read my blog at [link] . It's all English! Feel free to contact me if you've got any questions about volunteering at CCF, I'll be happy to answer them!

I hope to be cranking out about 3-5 pictures a day for at least a week. Stay tuned, and enjoy!

Also, there's a quite impressive CCF gallery over at Ben's dA account, don't forget to check it out:

Did it right after I saw it in her journal! ^^
I wrote the whole thing in German, though.
