A large bull Elephant taken in Sabi Sabi South Africa. He was huge and at first was showing aggression at our presence.
I liked this simple portrait of this elephant, in a very clean and simple setting. It was a gift to get the three layers of yellow, green and blue, ordered from warm in the foreground to cool in the background, with a bonus bird.

Another of the elephants from an evening drive in Amboseli. I think this is my favorite shot of the day and one of my favorites from the trip. The texture of his skin, the setting sun lighting just half of his face and the dry, brown background that shows his natural habitat but doesn't distract from the star of the photo. This was one of the elephants from the same herd seen in some of my other photos (Broken Tusk and Tusker Time).
one of the first elephants i found in the Hoanib riverbed on the latest trip to Namibia.

Elephant are in decline in Africa, no doubt about it. Tanzania has lost 60% of its elephants in just 5 years; that is catastrophic. The problem is not too bad in South Africa where overall numbers remain high but the drought had pushed them further north and they remained elusive to us.

These elephants approached our vehicle so close, even zoomed all the way out, I had to resort to close ups. Never imagined I'd need a wide angle on a game drive!
