Another picture of the 16 day old baby elephant. In this image the calf was shoving mommy out of the way to get to the treats on the ground. Once the baby had the treat, he had no idea what to do with it! Guess it's going to be milk for a while yet!

Another great and very cute image of the babyphant. I think, he just shoved his mom away, to be on your pic alone. A star is born. Great job!

very nicely detailed as usual. had a quick tinker with it in PS and makes a good high contrast monotone image too. If I could suggest anything it would have been to have opened up the framing a little to include all of the baby and a bit more of its mother. another great addition to your gallery.

There is more to the image, but unfortunately I had to crop it to this size to edit out a piece of fence that ran right in front of them. :-( They were in a paddock because elephant babies have extremely poor vision at that age and scare easily. I'm told African Elephant mothers react very poorly when you scare their babies.

I think that's a cross species thing. although granted, a hormonal elephant mother is not the first choice of animal you'd want to annoy :-)

Photographers are artists, magicians. They capture beauty so that it will last forever, and they might change it, make it something it is not. Thanks to photoshop!
