Photo description
With mud on his skin and water still visible at his feet, this impressive elephant steps calmly out of a watering hole. His coiled trunk, powerful tusks, and enormous ears give him an imposing appearance, while his calm gaze radiates tranquility. Only up close does it become truly clear just how big and powerful these animals are. An encounter with an elephant in the wild is often one of the most unforgettable moments of a safari.
