The herd was passing close by. When they sensed my presence, immediately a defensive screen was put up and the young ones were kept in the middle. The herd deliberated for quite sometime before deciding that I was harmless and decided to pass in front of me on their way to their grazing ground.

Classic Elephant behaviour to be so protective of their young! Nice shot!
