Elephants are one of my favorite subjects to photograph while in Africa. While some find that seeing them becomes routine during a safari, I am endlessly intrigued by their bodies, texture and behavior. The young ones remind me of human toddlers as they are a bit awkward in their movements (trunks and ears in particular), and they exhibit a bravado around their mothers that is comical.
This pair were at a watering hole have a drink when the baby decided it wanted to charge an adolescent bull at least 5-times its size. Seeing that the bull was nearly half as large as the babe's mother, nothing came of the folly. Canon 1D mkII + Canon 300 f2.8IS + 1.4x @ Lake Manyara, Tanzania regards, bruce |
