Description
This is Mana Pools in Zimbabwe, ladies and gentlemen...Gentle giants strolling through ancient forests of trees towering so high over them that they seem miniscule...and so much more for you, the feeble human being trudging around (on foot) trying to photograph the enormous magnificence of this place, yet coming out of there feeling totally inept to do justice to the place.
This is one such attempt...

The trees framing the elephant and a beautiful golden light. What a magnificent image.
Don't hate me for saying this,... looks like an amarula ad.

Great shot, good framing and I think you did well with a difficult (?) light situation... Magnificent and also awe inspiring to be so close to wild animals in East Africa eh??? Lucky you - I assume that you are based there....
