Description


Ha, just because I haven't been around for a day does not mean I have run away, LOL. Today a huge young bull elephant spending time at the water hole during the hot summer days. They are considered unpredictably dangerous when in musth like this fella.

My reminder may get on your nerves, but for the South Africans at least, follow the link here below for the annual fun Renderosity photography weekend.

Thank you for kind comments, etc, now follow this link please:

Well, he certainly has found pulse points that will cool him quickly when exposed to the water, huh........ I adore this shot. The mood is perfect and the pov gives an entirely different view for study. I can almost hear him "sigh" with relief. Awesome shot and so hard to imagine being close enough to take this and not be trampled!
