My Territory
Click any image to visualize your print. These images are only for visualization purpose.
My Territory shows a male cheetah sitting at the base of a tree, surveying its surroundings. The image is rendered in black and white, which dulls the background into gray and emphasizes the bright coat of the cheetah. The characteristic black tear marks that frame the snout are sharply defined, as are the iconic spots.
There are several iterations of this subject on my website (See Watch, The View, Agile), and this one is slightly expanded to show the surrounding area.
The grassy plains stretch out behind the cheetah as it looks out past the camera, and wiry shrubbery grows up unchallenged all around. This photo has a wild quality, from the twisted and gnarled texture of the tree to the thorny bushes, to the fearsome animal that sits among them.
The total lack of artifice in the scene is one of the many wonders about the nature reserves and national parks of South Africa. The animals are left to live out their days; however, nature dictates that they should. There is no interference from humanity aside from observing them and educate ourselves, and that in itself is a beautiful thing to preserve.
This is simply an excellent snapshot of the wild and unpredictable lives of Africa’s big cats. We are left to wonder about the specifics of the scene. Where is it going? Is it hunting? Running? Playing? It invites us to think of stories that might be unfolding because, in instances like these, we are observers and nothing more.
