Un fotógrafo con su mascota cariñosa. - Daniela2041, Mar 4, 2016

Answer 1

El guepardo: Recomendaría una velocidad de obturación de 1/200 y un apertura del diafragma de 7,1. Está listo para hacer una panorámica rápidamente de la izquierda a la derecha. Créeme: ella es muy rápido.

The cheetah: I'd recommend a shutter speed of 1/200th of a second, F-stop 7.1. Be ready to pan quickly from left to right. Take my word for it: she's very fast.

(Disclaimer: I am not a photographer. I probably have these values all wrong for shooting a running cheetah.)

yes, I think 1/2000 sec would be better! - jennysk, Mar 5, 2016

'para hacer una panorámica..'de izquierda a derecha' ;) - Pablo064, Mar 5, 2016

Gracias, Pablo. @jenny: A website I consulted recommended 1/160. That seemed incredibly slow even when panning, so I tweaked it in my sentence, but probably not enough. The guy had some amazing shots, but I think an amateur would need a much faster speed. - AnnRon, Mar 5, 2016

Amazing advice, I´m impressed by this leopard. - annierats, Mar 6, 2016

Answer 2

Leopardo cazador - Si quieres puedo correr y capturarlo para que puedas capturar un retrato en primer plano y después comeremos bien los dos. ¿De acuerdo?

Cheetah: '' If it suits you I'll run and catch it so that you can take a close-up portrait , and afterwards we will both eat well? How about that? ''

:D - Pablo064, Mar 5, 2016

Oh, Pablo,. you have made my day, I have never ventured to use ´´en primer plano´´ before. - annierats, Mar 6, 2016

Answer 3

(El leopardo) Me encanta que no mates a los animales. Eres muy bueno para con nosotros. Solamente sacas fotos de nosotros. Por eso no te voy a comer.

(The leopard) I love it that you don't kill animals. You are very good to us. You only take pictures of us. Therefore I will not eat you.

Hi Daniela, I have just answered your question and now I am posting a comment here to see whether you get notifications or not ^^ - AndréYuhai, Mar 4, 2016

Yup, I got it. I always get them. It's just that some people don't pay any attention to them. - Daniela2041, Mar 4, 2016

Answer 4

A veces es difícil ver el bosque por los árboles.

Sometimes it is hard to see the wood for the trees .

:) - Pablo064, Mar 5, 2016

Answer 5

Guepardo domesticado: ... y él es mi tío, y detrás el árbol es mi hermana. Vamos a la casa ya, tengo hambre, sueño y calor.

Domesticated cheetah: ... and he is my uncle, and behind the tree is my sister. Let's go to the house already, I'm hungry, tired and hot.

Excelente. - AnnRon, Mar 4, 2016

Gracias Ann. - 00551866, Mar 4, 2016

'y detrás del árbol está mi hermana..' ;) - Pablo064, Mar 5, 2016

Answer 6

El guepardo : "Hey, tio, no olvides la regla de los tercios! Puedo verlo!"

The cheetah : "Hey, buddy, do not forget the rule of thirds! I can see it!"

If I knew what "the rule of thirds" is all about, I might understand this post. Please explain. That cat is smarter than I am. - Daniela2041, Mar 4, 2016

Hi Daniela, The rule of thirds is a guideline which divides your camera's screen into 9 equal squares to let you align your objects according to those lines. All mobile phones have that option as well. It is very useful while taking photos. :) - AndréYuhai, Mar 4, 2016

I am going to check that out. Thanks. - Daniela2041, Mar 4, 2016

:D - Pablo064, Mar 5, 2016

Thanks Pablo :) - AndréYuhai, Mar 5, 2016

Ah, I didn´t know this either, thanks for enlightening me. - annierats, Mar 6, 2016

Answer 7

¿En serio güey? Si vas a contratar a un guarura local, quizás un león sea mejor. Sí, un guepardo es rápido, pero no tiene la fuerza para protegerte de algunos de los animales que podrían atacarte.

Really dude? If you are going to hire some local muscle, perhaps a lion would be better. Yes, a cheetah is fast, but it doesn't have the strength to protect you from some of the animals that might attack you.

I think guarura might be Mexican slang. - bosquederoble, Mar 4, 2016

'guarura' new worf for me :D - Pablo064, Mar 5, 2016

That is why I said that, I knew you might not know it. :) - bosquederoble, Mar 5, 2016

Answer 8

Me alegro que traje este guepardo de señuelo conmigo.

I am glad I brought this cheetah decoy with me.

'de señuelo' would sound better :) - Pablo064, Mar 5, 2016

Gracias - jennysk, Mar 6, 2016

Answer 9

guarura

Answer 10

Si colaboro con este cazador , estoy seguro que con sus armas modernas vamos a abatir mejores botines que con mis dientes y garras.

If I collaborate with this hunter, I'm sure with his modern weapons we will bring down better booty than with my teeth and claws.

Very good sentence, but "abate" doesn't seem like the right word choice. - AnnRon, Mar 4, 2016

Abate is not the English equivalent of "abatir" - something like "bring down" or "take down" might be better. :) - bosquederoble, Mar 4, 2016

'mejores botines que con mi dientes...' ;) - Pablo064, Mar 5, 2016

*mis dientes - Pablo064, Mar 5, 2016

Gracias amigos - porcupine7, Mar 5, 2016

Answer 11

Cheetah! I am so glad this human only uses a camara to shoot with.

¡El guepardo! Me alegro de que este humano solo use una cámara para disparar.

Aren't we all. Nice one Wendy. - ray76, Mar 5, 2016

'me alegro de que este humano solo 'use' una...' ;) - Pablo064, Mar 5, 2016

Hi Raymondo! Thanks Pablo064.. - Wennix, Mar 5, 2016

Answer 12

Es realmente así, los opuestos se atraen.

It really is so, opposites attract.
