, NgoroNgoro, Tanzania. Specie: Acinonyx jubatus

L' anno scorso, esattamente negli stessi giorni, avevo scattato una tra le mie foto preferite: i ghepardi " sotto la neve "...... ( http://www.juzaphoto.com/index2.php?l=it&pg=profile2&mode=viewgallerie&idutente=1573&gal=1095 ) Pensavo che qella situazione fosse irripetibile... in effetti lo è ma non potevo immaginare che avrei adirittura superato quelle condizioni estreme !! Nei giorni trascorsi nella Ngoorongoro Conservation Area abbiamo spesso seguito una mamma ghepardo con i suoi 4 cuccioli ed un pomeriggio, vedendo che in giro c'erano diversi temporali, abbiamo atteso che la pioggia si avvicinasse nella speranza di fare qualche scatto interessante. Quando ormai pensavamo che il temporale ci avesse aggirato, il vento è cambiato ed ha iniziato ad addensarsi un fronte uvoloso cupo e nerissimo con tanto di fugace ma bellissimo arcobaleno. Dopo le primissime gocce la savana è stata tempestata da una grandinata senza precedenti !! I poveri cuccioletti che si trovavano nel bel mezzo della savana e senza nessun riparo erano terrorizzati e si sono accucciati proteggendosi, per quanto possibile, con il corpo della madre. La macchina era colpita violentemente da chicchi di grandine grossi anche come noci che cadevano assieme ad una valanga d'acqua: a quanto detto dalle guide non avevano mai assisito ad un fenomeno così estremo !!! In pochi minuti la savana, fino a quel momento polverosa, si è trasformata in un acquitrino, noi eravamo fradici per l' acqua che entrava da tutte le parti ma affascinati ed esaltati dalla potenza della natura.. Fotografare in queste condizioni era difficilissimo perchè aprendo il finestrino l' obiettivo e la fotocametra venivano innnondati dall' acqua ma, qualche scatto è valso sicuramente il rischio per l' attrezzatura..... Assieme a noi c'era una macchina di documentaristi che incredibilmente, invece che riprendere questa scena eccezionale e documentare i ghepardi sotto la grandinata, hanno preferito chiudere tutto per non bagnarsi !!!! ed hanno riaperto solo quanto la pioggia è calata !!! Una cosa assurda ! Io dal canto mio avrò sempre il rimpianto di non essermi ricordato che con la 7d si possono fare i filmati.... però sono soddisfatto per qualche scatto d' atmosfera.

When I saw this picture not yet enlarged caught my attention at first glance I thought .. the rain taking pictures so '(I thought shutter speed) ... nonsense. This image and 'grainy, dotted like an impressionist painting, all the lines are soft and poorly definitite, I state that I paint for a living, but other types of subjects .. No matter, this looks like a painting to me the pictures taken with the super telephoto and super sharp excited to a certain point, many images are seen and straviste, take high-impact images with equipment costossima not mean pull out something original and exciting ... especially this photo is apparently technically imperfect, but This has importance because it gives a little excitement .. the bushes around being ill-defined give a sense of winding hot at the same time in a "nest" natural sprout heads and bodies entwined cheetahs in search of shelter and warmth, looking this feels almost cold. Continue with your experiments technical / creative satisfaction willit to you and also to the people who will watch your images. Bravo ;-)

Memy, I think if a photo is posted deserves to be commented properly or and 'best total silence (if this was really bad, emotionally and / or technically), the sterile "like" them to leave facebook. Actually, 'I'd like to find more' articulated comments on this site, unfortunately the most 'of the time comments are little explanatory .. in the sense that you do not understand' cause like a photo or otherwise nn understand why 'a photo nn like . Go ahead and keep trying and experimenting, I find it a very positive and constructive,:-P feel born from a personal need, you'll see that something good and perhaps exceptionally continue 'to jump out .. already' image Cheetahs in my humble opinion is over the top.

Congratulations Memy is a wonderful document.
Quoto totally Alefoto, I would not have found the best way to express myself.

And, if these are the results, continues to experience. I am sure that you are an inspiration to many of us (me for sure, and a lot, I promise :-))

Bravo!
