OK, Camera Lady, those are awesome photos. Where were you when you took the photos or when someone took the photos of you? Are we talking Kenya or a game preserve in a western country?
And I assume you had a driver just in case you needed to get away quick from a charging wild animal.
Just neat. --Richard

These are in Kenya. in Amboseli there is a preserve area you pay more to go in but you can get out of the vehicle in that area. If these elephants decided to charge there would be no getting in a vehicle to get away. We stay close to the vehicle and the elephants usually just ignore you! In the Masai Mara you can not get out of the vehicle except in designated breakfast areas. A tree is a designated spot!!! Since you can’t get out to get a lower more eye level shot they have made the lay flat door you see to get lower. About the only animal they say get up from the door is a young male lion. They are very curious and while not coming to hurt you, may if they walk right up to you reach up, like any cat, to paw at you and it could become a bad thing!!

Great set, Beth. Number 2 is a stunner when you look at the reflection in his/her eyes and can see the landscape/skyline.
Thanks, I love the eyes on any animal!

I so enjoy your pictures. my main concern is that you might at some time become the main dish on some animals dinnerplate, I expect that you are exposed to some danger to get your pictures which I see as being in a class of their own. THANK you!
