Pot of Gold
FIELDS OF GOLD.... What's at the end of your rainbow? Potentially a trunk load of gold in a jumbo sized pot!
We found this mid-sized female African Elephant at the end of a rainbow hanging over the Masai Mara Reserve, Kenya. I'm excited to be taking another group of photographers out there in Oct/Nov next year as the clouds and storms begin to return!
The storm clouds can start building in the afternoon and dramatic rainbows like this can occur with rain showers to the east but clear patches of sky to the west. This rainbow hung around for about 10 minutes before the sun was obscured by clouds. We raced to find this lone elephant before it completely disappeared.
I'm sure the elephant could see the rainbow, but she was primarily concerned about eating more food. She never stopped munching the entire time we were there.
For wildlife shots like this, it's not just luck. It's about reading the weather and knowing where to go when conditions like this develop to get the best opportunities.
