During our first day in Hawaii during May 08 my husband and I were eager to get in the water. However, we quickly found out the water was extremely cold. All I could do was run away from the water as soon as it hit my ankles, and my husband took a picture of my tracks. Photo taken by Shawn Carter (Vereinigte Staaten) - Travel/Vacation

The picture is special to me as it was taken in my spiritual home the Masai-Mara, Kenya. It is a female cheetah using a termite hill to gain advantage to see over the plains. This cheetah also jumped onto the bonnet of our land rover giving us an incredibly close encounter. I placed it in 'Nature' as the picture features wildlife within its own environment. It is an honour to be in their territory. Photo taken by Janine Kain (Vereinigtes Königreich) - Nature
