flynn 4 Posted August 2, 2008 After 10 minutes of driving around family with a baby elephant, this female gave us strong warning to leave. I was on the top of the Toyota Land cruiser's roof capturing this shot while our guide was hitting the gas pedal hard to escape from the immediate danger. The horizon is not straight but actually I choose this photo intentionally because I like the dynamics of the overall feeling - tilted elephant head, stretched ears and pristine crops rarely seen in dry Namibia.

matman1975 0 Posted August 2, 2008 Well you managed to stay calm and maintain a sharp subject! You are right this image is very dynamic and demonstrates the risks that a wildlife photographer sometimes has to take. Great effort, greetings from Greece Link to comment
