I must say I do have many photos that I really like even though many are quite similar. This was the one frustrating thing of this trip being more specialized is we spent many days in this same area. I am not the best at deciding which is a good photo and what makes one better. So, you get all that I think are good! I do have favorites of course.

I know this is not as dramatic as night lions....

I'm coming your way!

Do you see the orange pods in the tree? It is like elephant candy!

I enjoyed your images of night lions but these are equally impressive.

These are great. If you haven't checked out his work, you should look up Nick Brandt. He does great stuff. Chris Fallows also has amazing elephant shots...so dramatic. He shoots them with the camera basically on ground pointing up to the elephants. Really makes them look larger than life. There is a video out there somewhere I watched one time where he explains how he got his shots. Its definitely worth watching.

Another excellent set, Beth!

Thanks for the info. This was one place where you could be out of the vehicles and bo on foot. The first elephant I was laying on the ground looking up at him! Hard on the elbows, but a cool experience!
