[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
the salt lick..the ark..aberdare
the young elephant is ungainly...and cant control most of its extremities..including its trunk..it can take up to 2 years before it achieves tactile control
most of the time it either remains under its mothers belly or as it grows under her front legs where the teats are..or scampering in a wobbly wobbly fashion in the rear.
they are the amazing children of the animal world

Nice tight crop works well here to emphasize the movement, you expect him to hit the frame any second. Great colour and detail with the texture of the skin coming out, well done!

Unusual to see a 'walking' elephant here! Super sharpness. Perfect exposure, considering the monotone colours in the frame.
TFS!
